The Malaysia Foshan Chamber of Commerce (MFCC), actively promoting industry cooperation and development between Malaysia and Chinese enterprises, invites hundreds of Malaysian entrepreneurs and chamber members to participate in the “MCTE 2023 Malaysia-China Business and Trade Matchmaking Session.” This event has successfully facilitated collaboration between businesses from both regions.

The China-Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur) Commodities Fair (referred to as “MCTE”) is a key exhibition project jointly organized by the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE), the Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB), China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) under the China International Exhibition Center Group, and the Department of Commerce of Guangdong Province. In 2019, the third edition of MCTE set a record by becoming the largest Chinese commodities exhibition in Malaysia, covering 20,000 square meters with 533 booths.

The fourth edition of MCTE in 2022, held from November 2nd to 4th at the Kuala Lumpur World Trade Center despite challenging circumstances due to the pandemic, saw over 80 exhibitors from Guangdong Province participating via chartered flights. The total exhibition area exceeded 10,000 square meters. It was reported that Chinese exhibitors achieved on-site and intention transaction amounts of USD 23.5 million, equivalent to approximately RMB 169 million. The transaction rate, including purchase contracts, intention contracts, and agency agreements, reached an impressive 91.5%. Exhibition products were sold out quickly, and participating companies enjoyed fruitful results. Mr. Ouyang Yujing, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the People’s Republic of China to Malaysia, visited the exhibition, and it received extensive coverage from media outlets including Xinhua News Agency, China News Service, and Southern Daily. The exhibitor satisfaction rate exceeded 95%, and the visitor satisfaction rate reached 98%, setting a precedent for overseas exhibitions after the pandemic.
