Best Trade Shows in Malaysia

Malaysia hosts a significant share of Southeast Asia's trade-fair activity, centered on Kuala Lumpur. Electrical and electronics products are its largest export category, and the country is one of the world's leading centers for semiconductor assembly, packaging and testing; palm oil is another major export. Kuala Lumpur's principal venues are MITEC (Malaysia International Trade and Exhibition Centre), the country's largest exhibition centre, and the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC). Flagship events include SEMICON Southeast Asia, a leading regional microelectronics and semiconductor exhibition, held alongside major industrial shows such as Metaltech.
