KUANTAN: Up to 20 local entrepreneurs from the East Coast Economic Region (ECER) showcased their products at the 14th China-Asean Expo (CAEXPO) 2017 in Nanning, China, in the hopes of tapping into regional demand for Malaysia’s arts and crafts as well as traditional food products.

The initiative was an effort by the East Coast Economic Region Development Council (ECERDC), with the support from the Federal Government and the state governments, to further boost the demand for ECER’s products in China.
