Malaysia's Machinery on a Global Stage

As the National Trade Promotion Agency, MATRADE wants to position Malaysia as a globally competitive trading nation by offering specialized services to Malaysian exporters. MATRADE is also often the first reference point for foreign importers, making it the perfect platform for business matching opportunities for Malaysian companies and foreign importers. In conjunction with Industrial Transformation Asia-Pacific (ITAP) 2021, we spoke to Naim Abdul Rahman, Director, Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) about Malaysia's potential as a global powerhouse within this ecosystem, as well as MATRADE's plans to engage with other global players through the Malaysian Pavilion at ITAP 2021.
