KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia’s central location within South-East Asia and its entry into the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP) makes the country an ideal gateway for businesses in China to venture into Asean, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The Transport Minister said Malaysia’s participation in RCEP will boost the country’s growth as the agreement connects the country to a population of more than 2.2 billion.
