Malaysia Truly AsiaGeographically, Malaysia is as diverse as itsculture. There are two parts to the country,11 states in the peninsula of Malaysia <strong>and</strong>2 states on the northern part of Borneo.Cool hideaways are found in the highl<strong>and</strong>sthat roll down to warm, s<strong>and</strong>y beaches <strong>and</strong>rich, humid mangroves.Destination BorneoBeing the largest of 13 states in Malaysia,Sarawak covers 124,450 sq km (slightly smallerthan Greece or Mississippi), <strong>and</strong> stretches over750km of Borneo. It makes up 37.5% of l<strong>and</strong> areain the country.One of Malaysia's key attractions is itsextreme contrasts. Towering skyscraperslook down upon wooden houses built onstilts, <strong>and</strong> five-star hotels sit several metresaway from ancient coral reefs.Kuching is the capital city of Sarawak, with anestimated population of 600,000. In northernSarawak, Miri is the main city (263,000). Sibu(254,000) <strong>and</strong> Bintulu (196,000) are the maintowns in central Sarawak.English is widely spoken throughout the state,though Bahasa Malaysia (Malay) is the officiallanguage. Other local languages includeM<strong>and</strong>arin, Hokkien <strong>and</strong> other major Chinese <strong>and</strong>ethnic dialect.Multiculturalism has not only made Malaysiaa gastronomical paradise, it has also madeMalaysia home to hundreds of colourfulfestivals.

Sowhilst many in the west have the services <strong>and</strong> skills they are looking for, entering these markets is noteasy <strong>and</strong> should be h<strong>and</strong>led with care making the combined CDA/MDA Conference the perfectstepping stone for any supplier wishing to enter this rapidly growing market .In Europe <strong>and</strong> the US, business practices are very different. In both of these markets exporters havethe ability to fly in <strong>and</strong> directly present a proposal, supported by statistics, <strong>and</strong> to h<strong>and</strong> over lists ofreferees <strong>and</strong> testimonials which is often enough to secure a contract, however the ASEAN plus 2market takes a very different approach.Whilst the countries that make up this market are incredibly different, some similarities in businessexist. It is a relationship driven market, so the ability to attend the combined CDA/MDA Conference<strong>and</strong> build face to face relationships with potential buyers will be the key to success in entering thismarket.Facts about the ConventionDate : 25 th to the 27 th of May 2012Venue : Borneo Convention Centre Kuching, Sarawak MalaysiaExpected Registrations : 2000Expected Visitors to Trade Booths : 3000No of Booths Available : 3006
