WOOD 111 ASSOCIATIO N

Working to promote Malaysian timber products around the world, the Malaysian Timber Council (MTC) was established in 1992 with an initial remit to counter the antitropical timber campaign in Europe, as well as to procure raw materials for the Malaysian timber industry.

A semi-governmental – rather than commercial – entity, it has focussed on the marketing and promotion of Malaysian timber products and in 1999 established a regional office in Dubai in response to the significance

of a growing MENA market. Two other offices have also been established in London (since 1993) to serve Europe and in Shanghai (since 1999) to cater to the Far East market. The council has a staff strength of 64 at its HQ and across all its branches.

Explaining the council’s logo, Director Khairul Anwar says the five sides of the green pentagon represent MTC’s five founding members which are the timber-based associations, each of which has around 150 of its own members.
