Their representatives paid a courtesy call to Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor at his office in Menara Kinabalu here Tuesday and briefed him on the objectives of the conference and programme.
They also sought Hajiji’s advice on the role that the associations can play in contributing towards the development of Sabah businesses (and economic growth).
The associations are thankful that the Chief Minister has accepted the invitation to officiate the conference which will also look at the emergence of Artificial Intelligence
(AI) and the use of drones which are becoming increasingly important in businesses and economic progress.
