Purpose-Built to Serve an Ideal Purpose!
Malaysia’s premier purpose-built venue, the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (the Centre) is in full support mode as the government expedites the National COVID-19 Immunisation Programme (PICK) to achieve the targeted threshold of vaccinating 80% of the country’s population by October.
The Centre is now the largest Vaccination Centre (PPV) in Malaysia with about 33,000sqm of space occupied, utilised since the beginning of June.
The Centre’s strategic location in the Kuala Lumpur City Centre (KLCC) integrated precinct offers great connectivity points for vehicles, public transportation and pedestrians. The multiple access points into the Centre are used to help manage crowd flow and movement in and out of the PPV.
The Centre established the Kuala Lumpur Business Events Alliance (KLCCBEA) with the objective to enhance the visitor experience to the KLCC integrated precinct. Together, the Alliance Partners collaborate to deliver an unforgettable and seamless experience to visitors and event participants. Co-operation from Traders Hotel, Mandarin Oriental Hotel and the Suria KLCC Shopping Mall, all within walking distance, has provided ample additional parking (managed by KLCC Parking Management (KPM) Sdn Bhd) and increased manpower support to help enhance the management and operation of the vaccination centre.
The Centre also maintains a long-standing relationship with Royal Malaysia Police (PDRM) which has helped in the crowd management outside the venue.
