Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (Matrade) chief executive officer Datuk Dzulkifli Mahmud has urged local businesses to leverage on the country’s trade agreements to grow their exports.

“Malaysia has signed many bilateral and other trade agreements with a lot of countries. This is a platform for businesses and companies should make use of these free-trade agreements to penetrate the export market,” he said at a recent talk organised by Matrade for the Indian business community.
