Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Delegates will have the opportunity to experience Kuala Lumpur on Friday, 20 October, where they will engage in a rich program that explores premier developments, infrastructure hubs, and cultural sites amidst the city’s warm, tropical climate and vibrant street life. With modest beginnings as a tin-mining outpost in the 1880s, the city has grown into a major education, technology, banking, and energy-industry hub. It now commands one of the most dynamic skylines in Asia, with the new Exchange 106 and Merdaka PNB 118 towers joining the renowned Petronas Twin Towers. Kuala Lumpur has made major investments in transportation infrastructure, and in ensuring that new developments preserve the hybrid culture of its traditional kampungs (neighborhoods). The modern airport is connected to downtown by a dedicated express train, and an array of rail and monorail services radiates across the metro area. The Kuala Lumpur regional city program (with transportation and accommodation paid by the delegate) will incorporate two half-day segments that focus on unique themes, each progressing from a presentation format to expansive tours, site visits, and technical demonstrations.
