This morning, a Malaysian business delegation led by Hon. Wong Chen, Chair of the Special Committee on International Relations and International Trade and Member of Parliament, paid a fact-finding visit to the KNCCI Headquarters.

The delegation was received by Ms. Cynthia Nyawira, KNCCI National Director for Economic Diplomacy, together with members of the Secretariat.

Discussions centered on strengthening economic partnerships and leveraging synergies between Kenyan and Malaysian businesses to drive industrial transformation and enhance global competitiveness. KNCCI encouraged the investors to seize opportunities available in Kenya—including palm oil, rubber, furniture, and other sectors—while positioning Kenya as a strategic launchpad to access regional markets.

Both sides also explored the formation of a Joint Business Council (KNCCI–Malaysian Chamber) as a private sector dialogue platform, with its possible launch during the upcoming Kenya–Malaysia Business Forum.
