BANGKOK, July 17 (Bernama) -- Businesses and stakeholders in Thailand are encouraged to participate in the Malaysia-China Summit (MCS) 2024 to leverage not only the presence of Malaysian businesses but also the large presence of China’s industries.
MCS 2024 commissioner-general Datuk Tan Yew Chong said the summit aims to shape the future trajectory of the regional partnership, tackling significant issues that will drive economic growth, cooperation and development across ASEAN.
“Understanding the landscapes of Malaysia and China can help Thai businesses navigate and thrive in these markets,” he told Bernama after the MCS 2024 Networking Engagement Series here Wednesday.
He said MCS 2024 covers five strategic pillars, namely future tech (technology), future mobility and connectivity, future opportunity, future growth, and future knowledge and experience.
“We have set a sight of achieving RM2 billion in potential trade and investment opportunities during the three days of MCS 2024,” he said.
Organised by Qube Integrated Malaysia in association with the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation, the three-day summit begins on Dec 17 at the Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre.
Marking the 50th anniversary of Malaysia-China bilateral relations, the event aims to deepen economic integration and cooperation among ASEAN nations and China.
Meanwhile, the Malaysian Ambassador to Thailand, Datuk Jojie Samuel, said the MCS 2024 is an essential platform for deepening ASEAN integration.
“It provides an unparalleled opportunity for Thai businesses to engage, collaborate and explore new growth with counterparts from Malaysia, China and other ASEAN nations,” he said.
Jojie said Thai businesses can connect with over 500 exhibitors and 10,000 trade visitors by participating in the summit.
“MCS 2024 will facilitate numerous opportunities for Thai businesses to expand their market reach, forge strategic partnerships and gain valuable insights into emerging trends and technologies,” he said.
