Welcome Reception for the U.S. Presidential Delegation

On 26 October 2025, AMCHAM Malaysia, together with the U.S.-ASEAN Business Council (USABC), proudly hosted a Welcome Reception for the U.S. Presidential Delegation, bringing together business leaders and policymakers for an evening that underscored the strength and depth of the Malaysia–U.S. partnership.

More than a reception, the evening was a celebration of friendship, economic collaboration, and shared commitment to growth and prosperity between Malaysia and the United States.

The event brought together over 170 guests including members of the U.S. Presidential Delegation, representatives from the U.S. Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, AMCHAM and USABC members, and prominent leaders from both the business and government sectors.

The Honorable Jacob Helberg, Under Secretary of State for Economic Growth, Energy, and the Environment,  H.E Michael DeSombre, Assistant Secretary for East Asia and Pacific Affairs and H.E. Edgard D. Kagan, U.S. Ambassador to Malaysia, conveyed their appreciation to the Malaysian government, the U.S. business community and their Malaysian counterparts for their support and highlighted the importance of continued collaboration between the U.S. and Malaysia. 

Guests had the opportunity to engage directly with U.S. government representatives and strengthen cross-sector connections. 

Thank you to the U.S.-ASEAN Business Council (USABC) for partnering with us on this memorable evening, one that underscored the enduring spirit of friendship and cooperation between Malaysia and the United States.
