From Bernama, dateline 2103-05-20:

The Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB) is targeting an economic impact of RM66.5 million from the Offshore Technology Conference OTC Asia 2014.

The conference, from March 25-28, 2014, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre here, is also expected to welcome 6,600 international delegates to Malaysia, MyCEB said in a statement Monday.

Its Chief Executive Officer Zulkefli Sharif said Asia is increasingly gaining the attention of global players for business events, and Malaysia in particular, is highly regarded as an important port of call for international meetings.

He said the oil and gas sector accounts for around one-fifth of Malaysia’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and is included in the country’s Economic Transformation Programme (ETP) outline.
