Matrade centre to open soon

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian External Trade Development Corp (Matrade) expects its soon-to-be-opened Matrade Exhibition and Convention Centre (MECC) to complement the existing major exhibition facilities at the Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) and Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC). 

“If talk that the Mines Exhibition Centre is closing down is true, the country will run short of exhibition space. So we are not actually competing with PWTC and KLCC,” Matrade director (management services) Jamaludin Hussain told StarBiz.
