Held at the Malaysia Agro Exposition Park Serdang (“MAEPS”), Kuala Lumpur, on 13 September 2017, the workshop initiated by Million Sunray received a positive turnout of approximately 60-70 participants from Malaysian government agencies, Durian and Agro-based industry players, as well as other potential investors.
