KUALA LUMPUR, March 13 (Bernama) — Business events in Malaysia would not be made possible particularly with the establishment of Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB). Over the past decade, the bureau has strengthened Malaysia’s position as Asia’s Business Events Hub and placed Malaysia as top 35 countries for number of meetings worldwide, meanwhile Kuala Lumpur ranked top 10 for Asia Pacific according to the International Congress & Convention Association (ICCA) 2018 report.
To date, Malaysia has 11 major convention centres including the largest venue, Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre (MITEC) which could accommodate up to 50,000 delegates at a time. With strong support from the Government and industry players, several meeting venues were upgraded such as Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC), World Trade Centre Kuala Lumpur (WTCKL), Mandarin Oriental Hotel Kuala Lumpur, InterContinental Hotel Kuala Lumpur & Renaissance Hotel Kuala Lumpur, and new facilities to be introduced such as Ipoh Convention Centre and Sabah International Convention Centre (SICC).
