Summit founder says he is not organiser of Chinese economic forum


PETALING JAYA: The founder of the Global Chinese Economic and Technology Summit (GCET) has explained that he is not the organiser of the 11th World Chinese Economic Forum (WCEF) which had former prime minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak as its keynote speaker.

Tan Sri Lee Kim Yew said it was true that the WCEF had originally been founded by him in 2009 but the name of the forum has since been changed to World Chinese Economic Summit, and then this year to the GCET.
