During the sharing session, The Yang Di-Pertuan Agong highlighted Malaysia’s peaceful nature and political stability and invited Chinese investors to explore potential investment in Malaysia, given the good relationship between the countries.
The Fujian Government expressed that there was particular interest from Chinese investors to invest in Malaysia.
In a separate session held on the same day, LBS brought together another meeting for the delegation of the Fujian Government with the presence of the Chief Minister of Malacca, YAB Datuk Seri Ab Rauf bin Yusoh, held at St. Regis Kuala Lumpur.

For both sessions, LBS was represented by its Executive Chairman, Tan Sri Ir. Lim Hock San and the Group’s Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Datuk Wira Joey Lim Hock Guan.
The attendees representing China included His Excellency Zhou Zuyi (Secretary of the CPC Fujian Provincial Committee and Chairman of the Standing Committee of Fujian Provincial People’s Congress) and Mr Zhou Kuanfen (Deputy Secretary-General of the CPC Fujian Provincial Committee and Director-General of the General Office of the CPC Fujian Provincial Committee).

LBS Executive Chairman Tan Sri Ir. Lim Hock San said, “We are grateful to be involved in the sharing sessions between key leaders of the Fujian Government and Malaysia. In particular, we wish to extend our gratitude to the Yang Di-Pertuan Agong in gracing our high-tea session on 14 May 2023.
With this meeting, we hope it will be able to further strengthen the bilateral relationship between Malaysia and China.
Earlier in April, during YAB Dato' Seri Anwar bin Ibrahim’s trip to China, it was announced that Malaysian companies had entered into 19 MoUs with Chinese entities, representing an investment commitment of RM170 billion from China into Malaysia.
Thus, LBS is positive that China will play a big role in the development and progression of our nation moving forward.
We hope to see an increasing number of joint ventures and collaborations between Malaysia and China in the months to come.”
