BALIKPAPAN: The Sarawak Connects Fair was officially launched here to boost cross-border trade, investment and development collaboration with East Kalimantan.
The event was officiated by Deputy Premier Datuk Amar Awang Tengah Ali Hasan, and brought together key stakeholders from both sides including government agencies, industry players, and development partners to explore strategic opportunities in trade, investment, and innovation.
More than just a trade platform, the fair symbolises a shared commitment to driving economic development, connectivity, and mutually beneficial sustainability. It also reflects Sarawak’s support for the development aspirations of Nusantara as Indonesia’s new capital city.
The fair focuses on healthcare and medical tourism, education, digital learning, and sustainable urban planning, aligning with Sarawak’s Post COVID-19 Development Strategy 2030.
The Sarawak government also extended its appreciation to the East Kalimantan Government and Indonesian partners for their support in making the event a success.
