KLSE's Deputy President, Strategy & Development Abdul Hamid Sheikh Mohamed said KLSE will continue to organise the Going Public seminars in other states in Malaysia, including Sabah and Sarawak.
"It is important to note that the effectiveness of these seminars is largely contributed by the pro-active involvement of relevant industry and market participants in these seminars.
