When pavilion becomes celebrity

Hot spot: Crowds packing the Malaysia pavilion, which was a huge attraction at the CAExpo in Nanning, China.

CLAD in striking red with eye-catching images of the Petronas Twin Towers, the Malaysia pavilion at the recent 15th China-Asean Expo (CAExpo) was a compulsory stop for most visitors.

Labelled the “celebrity pavilion”, it housed more than 170 exhibitors and was the biggest among those put up by the Asean countries.
