WE were heartened to see the opinion piece titled “Effective measures needed to support event industry” by Datuk Seri Wong Chun Wai which was published on Nov 20 in The Star (online at bit.ly/star_events).
As chairman of the Business Events Council Malaysia (BECM) and general manager of the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, I would like to endorse and express my gratitude for the message that Wong conveys in his piece, as it is generally in line with the views that the BECM and other industry players have been communicating to the government.
