The Republic of Guinea is looking up to Malaysia’s expertise in the palm oil sector to boost the two nations’ bilateral trade ties, which was valued at US$45mil (RM143.1mil) last year, and the African republic recently chose to work with K Global Ventures Sdn Bhd (KGV) to start the ball rolling.

Guinea’s Minister of Trade, Marc Youmbouno who was on a visit here recently to meet investors, announced that negotiations have led to the selection of KGV to develop 100,000ha in Guinea to grow and process palm oil.
