KAPIT (May 8): Sarawak Chinese chambers of commerce must stay adaptable to keep up with challenging times, said Miri Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCCI) president Ling Chang Sheng.
He said in view of this, the MCCC will continue to enhance their competitiveness by improving service efficiency and attracting young talents.
He said this during a working visit to the Kapit Chinese Chamber of Commerce (KCCC), which was attended by 23 MCCCI members yesterday.
During the visit, they were welcomed by KCCC chairman Sii Bang Ee, and the committee members of both chambers held a dialogue session.
Ling also explained MCCCI was celebrating its 100th anniversary this year, and invited KCCC to attend the grand celebration on Sept 5.
He also called on both chambers to work together towards building a more dynamic and influential business ecosystem, by injecting new momentum into enterprises and society.
'Although Miri and Kapit are far apart physically, we have always been united in our mission to unite Chinese businessmen together.
'Through cooperation, we promote economic prosperity, safeguard the rights and interests of members, and are able to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results,' he said.
He added that only by strengthening regional economic and trade linkages, and promoting exchanges and mutual learning among enterprises will there be broader development opportunities for the Chinese community.
The delegation yesterday also visited the Song, Kanowit, Bintangor and Sarikei chambers, while on Tuesday, they visited its Mukah and Sibu counterparts.
Today, they will visit the chambers in Saratok, Betong, Sri Aman and Serian, and culminate in a final stop at the Kuching Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
