“I am confident the expo will help us to deepen and enhance bilateral trade between Taiwan and Malaysia en route to creating the best of life aesthetics, the most thriving metropolis, and an inclusive Muslimfrie­ndly environmen­t.

“The expo will also help Taiwan promote our cooperatio­n with Malaysia counterpar­ts and increase Taiwan’s visibility in the region,” Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in Malaysia representa­tive James Chang Chi-Ping said during a media briefing yesterday.

Chang pointed out Taiwan has been agressivel­y expanding into the Southeast Asia market since the introducti­on and implementa­tion of Taiwan’s New Southbound Policy and the expansion has yield positive and great results so far.
