The Malaysian pavillion at FIA 2014 also featured the Asia Aerospace City (AAC), a project led by M-AeroTech, to develop a complete business ecosystem for aerospace industry players in line with the Economic Transformation Programme (ETP), said the International Trade and Industry Ministry. It said the AAC would focus on high-quality engineering services, industry-relevant human capital, and iconic infrastructure.
