In line with the Budget 2020 announcement of a special channel under InvestKL to attract more investments from China, we examine the opportunities presented by the Belt & Road Initiative (BRI), a platform for Malaysian companies to explore more trade and investments to/from China and other participating countries. What are the risks? What are the promising sectors? Which technology companies are we hoping to attract? We speak with Dr. Ong Kian Ming, Deputy Minister of International Trade and Industry; Koh King Kee, Director of China's Belt & Road Desk at Baker Tilly Advisory; and Koong Lin Loong, Managing Partner of Reanda LLKG International, Chairman of the SME Committee and national council member of the Associated Chinese Chambers of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia (ACCCIM).
