🌏🇦🇺🇲🇾 AMBC SA at the Australia–ASEAN Business Forum 2026

On Wednesday, 30 September 2026, AMBC SA President Dr Evelyn Yap attended the Australia–ASEAN Business Forum 2026 at the Adelaide Convention Centre, together with Jhaiyasree Walaidam, Director of the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA), and Mohamad Hasif Farhan Harith, Investment Officer at MIDA.

The Forum brought together business, government and industry leaders from Australia and across ASEAN, providing an important platform for strengthening economic ties and developing new opportunities in trade, investment and regional collaboration.

It was also wonderful to continue our engagement with the MIDA team following their visit and meetings in South Australia.

AMBC SA values opportunities such as these to strengthen connections between South Australia and Malaysia, while supporting broader engagement between Australia and the ASEAN region.

We thank Jhaiyasree and Hasif for connecting with us during their time in Adelaide and look forward to continuing to build meaningful relationships and opportunities between our business communities. 🤝

On Monday, 28 September 2026, AMBC SA Joint Vice-President Alan Lim and Vice-Secretary Rachel Tan had the pleasure of meeting with representatives from the High Commission of Malaysia and the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA).
