PETALING JAYA: The artwork of young Malaysian artists should be well documented and showcased more widely to enhance their recognition in the competitive international market, says Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz.

The Investment, Trade and Industry Minister said local artists often lack exposure and called for the establishment of more art galleries to promote their work.
