Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau
(MyCEB) has launched the Association Development Programme (ADP) to support the
development of the country's associations and encourage the hosting of
international conventions.
Under the new programme, member associations
are entitled to a variety of strategic initiatives such as financial and
non-financial bid support and international engagements. A series of
association management and conference planning seminars will provide training
for association officers.
Commenting on MyCEB’s latest initiative, Yap
Sook Ling, director of AOS Conventions & Events Malaysia, said: “ADP is
good as it will help associations to better understand the bidding process,
which in turn will make it easier for PCOs and DMCs to work with them. It will
also help associations understand that there are many opportunities available
for them to bid for world and regional meetings.
“Many
associations still think that the job of DMCs merely involves booking of hotels
and ballrooms. ADP will dispel that notion and create a better awareness of
what is involved in making an international conference successful and the tools
that are available, such as specialised software that can be used for the
entire event, from registration to session booking to delegate payment.”
