On the afternoon of 10 September 2026, the IN GLOBAL Legal & Business Alliance (the “Alliance”), the Malaysia Chamber of Commerce and Industries Philippines (the “Chamber”) and Yingke Malaysia successfully held a signing ceremony for a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), connected online across three cities: Manila, Kunming and Kuala Lumpur.

Yang Jingjing, Chairman of the Council of the Alliance; How Han Hui, President of the Chamber; and Yao Yanfei (Maggie), Vice Chairman of the Alliance and Executive Director of Yingke Malaysia, signed the MOU, while Wang Yu, Secretary-General of the Alliance and Director of Yingke Laos, and Meng Kaina, Vice Chairman of the Alliance, attended as witnesses. The partnership marks a key step forward in the Alliance’s presence in the ASEAN market.

At the opening of the meeting, Alliance Chairman Yang Jingjing extended a warm welcome to all participating representatives. She noted that the Alliance draws on the Belt and Road Initiative to integrate professional and business resources and build a bridge for two-way cooperation, and that the signing is not only a fresh starting point for trilateral cooperation but also an important milestone for Chinese, Malaysian and Philippine companies working together to open up the ASEAN market. She hoped all parties would deepen mutual trust and pursue development together.

President How Han Hui then expressed his support for the signing. He noted that the Chamber, as a service platform for Malaysian companies in the Philippines, has always kept good communication and cooperation with the Philippine business community, and that he hopes to work through the Alliance with more Chinese companies to build a bridge for two-way overseas expansion, promote practical exchanges in information sharing and resource matching, and jointly create favourable conditions for cooperation among the business communities of the three countries.

Secretary-General Wang Yu then introduced the Alliance’s “professional + business” dual-track model and the service model of its three centers. With its two operations centers in Kunming and Kuala Lumpur, the Alliance builds a bridge for two-way investment, with resources covering South and Southeast Asia, the Middle East, Central Asia and Africa, helping Chinese and foreign companies expand into overseas markets together. The trilateral signing is a real-world implementation of the dual operations centers. Going forward, the Alliance and the Chamber will complement each other’s resources to serve Chinese companies investing in the Philippines and help them adapt to local market rules.

Executive Director Yao Yanfei (Maggie) said that the Alliance’s overseas operations center will play its full role in overseas expansion, work closely with the Alliance’s domestic center to create joint momentum, and work with the Chamber to keep advancing trilateral cooperation in exchanges between Chinese and foreign companies and in industry promotion. Drawing on Kuala Lumpur’s location advantages and the Alliance’s professional service network, it will match companies from different sectors with precisely targeted resources and open up a full-process service chain from early-stage research to on-the-ground operations, helping Chinese companies “go global” steadily and for the long term.

After the speeches, the ceremony moved on to the core signing stage. The representatives of the three parties took up their pens at the same time from their respective connected locations and completed the signing of the MOU.

During the exchange session, participants held in-depth discussions on directions for cooperation across several industries, including AI technology, renewable energy, home furnishings trade and the low-altitude economy, and shared their thoughts on possible future cooperation scenarios and how they might be put into practice.

Looking ahead, Yingke Malaysia, as the overseas operations center of the IN GLOBAL Legal & Business Alliance, will keep to the principles of “equal cooperation, resource sharing, complementary strengths and win-win development”, with the “integration of law and business” as its core capability concept and its overseas physical service network as its operating foundation. It is committed to becoming the on-the-ground arm and professional risk service platform for Chinese companies at the “systematic rooting” stage overseas, and, together with partners from all sectors, to go beyond going global and aim for a shared ecosystem.
