The Malaysia-Guangdong Chamber of Investment Promotion (MGCIP) is a non-profit organization established in year 2008 with the blessing of our local authorities and the Embassy of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in Malaysia. In the same year, MGCIP marked a new milestone when the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) Guangdong and MGCIP signed an Agreement of “Setting of the Guangdong –Malaysia Bilateral Enterprises Business Council” on the 12th of September, witnessed by Malaysia’s then Deputy Prime Minister, YAB Dato’ Sri Najib Tun Abdul Razak, then Minister of International Trade and Industry YB Tan Sri Dato’ Hj. Muhyiddin Hj. Mohd Yassin, and the General Secretary of Guangdong Province, H.E. Mr Wang Yang.
With initiative of the MGCIP, the first Malaysia-Guangdong Bilateral Enterprise Business Council conference was successfully organised and held at Royal Chulan Hotel, Kuala Lumpur, in June 2009. The conference successfully attracted many business representatives from Malaysia and Guangdong respectively. The success of the first conference was extended to the Malaysia-Guangdong Bilateral Enterprise Business Council conference for second year running, held in Zhuhai, China, with the conference theme on cooperation in green business. MGCIP had proudly invited our Malaysia’s Minister of Housing and Local Government, YB Dato Seri Chor Chee Heung to attended to the conference.
