Naico Malaysia to elevate nation’s aerospace profile at Singapore Airshow
In a strategic move to underscore Malaysia’s growing prominence in the global aerospace sector, National Aerospace Industry Corporation Malaysia (Naico Malaysia) is set to showcase its expertise and capabilities at the ongoing Singapore Airshow 2024 (SA24).
The airshow will witness Naico Malaysia’s efforts to propel the nation’s aerospace capabilities to new heights.
“Participation in SA24 marks a significant milestone for Malaysia’s aerospace industry,” said Naico Malaysia CEO Shamsul Kamar Abu Samah at the opening of the Malaysia Pavilion at the airshow, which runs until Feb 25, at the Changi Exhibition Centre in Singapore.
The Malaysia Pavilion was officially opened by Malaysia’s High Commissioner to Singapore Datuk Dr Azfar Mohamad Mustafar in the presence of Malaysian Investment Development Authority (Mida) chairman Tan Sri Dr Sulaiman Mahbob.
Shamsul Kamar said SA24 is an opportunity to demonstrate Malaysia’s advancements, forge global partnerships, and attract investments that will propel it towards its goal of becoming the aerospace hub of Southeast Asia.
“Through strategic initiatives and the unwavering spirit of innovation that defines our industry, we are not just participating; we are setting the stage for the future of aerospace in Malaysia and beyond,” he said.
Shamsul Kamar said Naico Malaysia will engage with several international companies, including those from Japan, China, Canada, France, the United States, and the United Kingdom, as well as numerous original equipment manufacturers and Tier 1 suppliers.
“These interactions are pivotal in expanding our global footprint and enhancing our industry’s capabilities through strategic partnerships,” he said.
The Malaysia Pavilion, featuring 10 of the country’s leading aerospace companies and three government agencies, represents the nation’s commitment to excellence and innovation.
Several memorandums of understanding are scheduled to be signed at the Malaysia Pavilion. A mini-investment seminar will be organised by Mida and a roundtable meeting will be hosted by Invest Selangor. – Bernama
