(KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Nov. 1, 2017 PRNewswire=연합뉴스) The 4th Anniversary Development Forum of 21th Century Maritime Silk Road Initiative and the 5th CMEC Brand Promotion Conference, co-hosted by China Machinery Engineering Corporation (CMEC) and Peking University, took place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on October 27, 2017.
Several key guests delivered speeches at the event, including Deputy Minister of Science, Technology and Innovation (Malaysia) YB Datuk Wira Dr. Abu Bakar Mohamad Diah, vice president of the Malaysia-China Chamber of Commerce (MCCC) Kerk Loong Sing and Minister of City Planning and Water Supply (Sri Lanka) Rauff Hakeem, as well as the former Malaysian Ambassador to China. A high-ranking executive from Electricite du Laos (EDL) gave a speech on user experience on behalf of CMEC's users in markets outside of its domestic market in China. As evidence of strong support from the Chinese government, the Economic and Commercial Counsellor of the Embassy of the People's Republic of China in Malaysia Shi Ziming was in attendance. The event also brought together over 300 representatives from 17 countries and regions worldwide, including Bangladesh, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Maldives, Myanmar, Singapore, Sri Lanka and Thailand. Attendees included Deputy Minister of Housing and Infrastructure (Maldives) Maumoon Abdulsamad, among other government officials, representatives from industry associations, top researchers from high-end think tanks and representatives from the industrial and commercial communities in the countries targeted by the initiative. CMEC president Zhang Chun delivered a keynote speech themed "CMEC-Your Partner for Success" and took part in several business meetings and conferences during the event.
The event received wide attention from the media community. China Radio International (CRI) conducted an exclusive interview with CMEC president Zhang Chun. Additionally, several dozen local and international media outlets, including leading Chinese news agencies, issued featured reports on the event. Among them, Xinhua News Agency, China News Service, Radio Televisyen Malaysia (RTM), NanYang Siang Pau, Sin Chew Daily and Oriental Daily News.
To further increase CMEC's brand influence, the CMEC Brand Promotion Conference was organized using what the event organizer termed as the "one plus three" approach: one conference held in the morning and three sub-forums held in the afternoon related respectively to the engineering design, procurement and construction, the financing and the academic aspects of machinery engineering. CMEC, in cooperation with its strategic partners, including General Electric (GE), demonstrated the company's outstanding competence in engineering integration to its customers during the "EPC plus new technology"-themed events. High-level executives from nearly 20 Chinese and international financial institutions, including China Development Bank, China Construction Bank, Bank of China, Deutsche Bank and Standard Chartered Bank, outlined their cooperation with CMEC, serving as a testament to CMEC's reliability as an investment and financing partner. In addition, Peking University formally released its Report on the Interconnections among Countries along the 21th Century Maritime Silk Road and invited specialists and academic experts from the countries involved to participate in the discussions on potential collaborations between China and Malaysia and on the future of the 21th Century Maritime Silk Road Initiative.
The Forum and Brand Promotion Conference has been held in Southeast Asian countries for three years in a row following the inaugural gathering in Indonesia in 2015 and the first anniversary event in Thailand in 2016. The organization of the events was undertaken by CMEC's controlling subsidiary CMEC International Exhibition. This year's event which included demonstrations on the use of photoelectric technology and multimedia interactions proved to be an especially vivid presentation and demonstration of CMEC's brand image and strength.
"CMEC highly values its markets in Southeast Asia, especially South Asia, and has identified the region as one of the company's key strategic markets outside of its home market," said president Zhang in his keynote speech. "Going forward, CMEC plans to continue embracing innovation as the firm keeps perfecting the business model as part of its mission to achieve the vision of becoming a leading global international engineering contractor and service provider and of making further worthwhile contributions to the fulfillment of the 'One Belt, One Road' Initiative and the creation of a community of a shared future for mankind."
