IT has been more than a year since Ipoh was declared a Social Business City by Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir during the Pangkor International Development Dialogue in September last year.

Since then, the Ipoh City Council had been busy meeting and having town hall sessions with various organisations and individuals to plan and create the ideal Social Business City where people can solve various local and social issues.
