He also added that through the collaboration, MRC and NCIA will jointly outline and implement a cooperative business process for KRC from leads generation to investment. 

“MRC will continue to pave the way to connect industry players and the rubber products supply chain. We truly value NCIA’s KRC initiatives and are looking forward to work together with them in advancing Malaysia’s rubber industry,” said Hizwan.
