A captivating Malaysian encounter

Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB) participated in the Expo! Expo! 2023 for the second time from 5 – 7 December 2023. Organised by the International Association of Exhibitions and Events (IAEE), delegates from around the globe relished a captivating Malaysian encounter, as MyCEB underscored Malaysia’s expertise in hosting exceptional exhibitions.

MyCEB hosted a tea reception at the Global Pavilion, providing a platform for industry members to engage in dialogue, share knowledge, foster B2B opportunities, and drive innovation. During the reception, a local Malaysian residing in Texas conducted a demonstration on the art of ‘Teh Tarik’ (pulled tea), offering an engaging showcase of our cultural practices. This demonstration served as a unique and flavorful glimpse into the rich tapestry of Malaysian traditions, providing attendees with an authentic and delightful experience.
