If you are interested to start a business and clueless about what to start with, you may check out the various franchise available at Malaysian Franchise Association. There are a few business training events that might be useful for anyone who has not base in setting up a business. When we set up our learning and tuition centers, we went through a series of training too and I learned a lot from the courses. Without the training, I don’t think we could set up the business in a short period of time.

If you are interested to know more about getting up a franchise biz, there’s an exhibition and conference being held on 31st July - 3rd August 2008 at PWTC. I won’t be around in Malaysia by then, so I don’t think I will check it out. Don’t forget to mark down the date ya?
