KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 9 (Bernama) -- Over 100 businessmen are keen to attend the East Coast Economic Region Development Council (ECER DC) briefing session on trade and investment prospects in ECER states with the Chinese chamber.
The session, covering business networking and business-match meetings, will be held at the Primula Beach Resort in Kuala Terengganu tomorrow.
The 13th Dialogue of the Affiliated Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Terengganu, Kelantan and Pahang follows several of ECER DCs participation in various incoming trade missions to Kuala Lumpur, most recently from Guangdong, China, and India, said ECER DC in a statement.
It said the ECER DC recently launched special incentives to develop specific business clusters that would stimulate and promote urban and regional economic growth.
"These incentives are tailor-made especially for this region aimed at transforming ECER into a cost competitive and vibrant business hub," it said.
The ECER initiative spans five main industry clusters -- tourism, manufacturing, oil, gas and petrochemical, agriculture and education.
It aims to achieve RM112 billion investments for the initiatives by 2020 to improve income levels and enhance the regions socio-economic standing.
