ASM Global expands Malaysian portfolio

ASM Global, a venue management company, has announced that the Malaysia National Stadium and Axiata Arena have joined its international portfolio.

The partnership includes the Malaysian Ministry of Youth and Sports via Perbadanan Stadium Malaysia (PSM), to add to their already established activities at the Kuala Lumpur Sports City precinct. The announcement is in line with the Malaysian Government’s development of the National Sports Precinct at Bukit Jalil, which hosts sports, entertainment and community events.

The company has stated that, through this partnership, they plan to provide its Malaysian portfolio with improved facilities, training for staff, and connections to the Kuala Lumpur Sports City precinct.

Harvey Lister AM, chairman and chief executive of ASM Global APAC and Gulf Region, said that the partnership is a further indication of the region’s growth.

“We firmly believe the Malaysia National Stadium and the Axiata Arena have the potential expressed by the Malaysia Sports Ministry.”

ASM Global has also announced an upcoming partnership with local Malaysian company Sportswork Sdn Bhd to deliver services for Kuala Lumpur Sports City.

Malaysia sports minister, Y.B. Dato’ Seri Ahmad Faizal bin Dato’ Azumu, said: “We see this MOU as a great opportunity for PSM and ASM Global to enhance Kuala Lumpur Sports City.

“Both National Stadium Bukit Jalil and Axiata Arena are iconic properties owned by the Malaysian people, and we owe them a responsibility to ensure these venues make us proud.”
