MELBOURNE, Australia - Aug. 18, 2019 - PRLog -- Tan Sri Dr Michael Yeoh, co-chairman of the World Chinese Business & Economic Summit (WCBES) and President, Kingsley Strategic Institute (KSI) has announced that Macau will host the Summit on 17 – 18 October 2019 at the Venetian Macau Resort Hotel.

This year WCBES celebrates its 11^th anniversary and will be held in conjunction with the World Summit of Chinese Entrepreneurs - and the theme is Enhancing Partnerships & Shared Prosperity Through the BRI.

Tan Sri Yeoh said, "The WCBES is the flagship event on the economic benefits of doing business with China and the program is structured to facilitate business linkages that connect the East and West and the global Chinese diaspora".

"Furthermore, reflecting the internationality of the Summit, it has been held in Kuala Lumpur, Chongqing, China, Hong Kong, London, Melbourne, and last year in Malacca Malaysia".

It was apt that the 2019 WCBES is held in Macau in conjunction with The World Summit of Chinese Entrepreneurs as Macau, Hong Kong and Guangdong has been designated as a Greater Bay Area, a megapolis consisting of 9 cities and 2 Special Administrative Regions.

2019 also marks the 20^th anniversary of the establishment of the Macau Special Administrative Region and 70^th anniversary of the establishment of the People's Republic of China.  It is also the 45^th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Malaysia and China.

A key objective of the Summit's program that is expected to attract over 300 delegates is to facilitate a 'meeting of the minds' for the delegates that comprise business leaders, high ranking government officials, academics, entrepreneurs and economic strategists.

As well as promoting global and regional dialogue on China's importance as the world's second largest economy, it also acknowledges the important role of the worldwide Chinese diaspora in the promotion of B2B connectivity, entrepreneurship and innovation through networking and sharing of knowledge and best practices.

Tan Sri  Yeoh concluded, "With each Summit, the WCBES has gone from strength to strength in achieving its goal of promoting bilateral trade engagement with China.  Furthermore, the Summit has facilitated the forging of friendships and connections with dynamic individuals and entrepreneurs during the social and networking activities".

"I am confident the Summit in Macau will attract a record number of delegates from across the globe to participate in a program of international speakers and China experts of the highest calibre providing visionary keynotes, insightful panel discussions and roundtables".
