💼 Spotlight on Small Businesses
We’ve been honored to receive such enthusiastic support from individual entrepreneurs and business owners. Our VIP booths and food stalls are completely sold out, with just 2 non-food stalls remaining. It’s a powerful reminder of the vibrant Bangladeshi entrepreneurial spirit flourishing in Malaysia.
🏛️ Honoring Our Roots
We are also honored to invite the High Commissioner of Bangladesh to Malaysia to grace the event as Chief Guest, adding to the occasion’s cultural and national significance.
