Chairman Sean Seah said, “I truly appreciate everyone for making time to be here tonight as we honour the industry’s finest, celebrating our perseverance and survival amidst the pandemic challenges, but at the same time putting in the extra effort to pivot our focus towards digital tech.”

ASOCIO and WITSA were included in tonight’s program to resonate with the association and spur higher growth for the industry and a regional and global context, Pikom noted.

The ASOCIO and WITSA awards were announced in November last year and the ceremony was to applaud the Malaysian winners of the awards.
