SHAH ALAM: The PKNS Entrepreneur Carnival (KUP) is aiming for RM200,000 in sales over its three-day event at PKNS Complex. Organisers reported transactions worth RM65,209 on the first day.
State Youth, Sports and Entrepreneurship Committee chairman Mohd Najwan Halimi said the carnival helps entrepreneurs enhance their skills and marketability. The event features participants from four PKNS-run programmes: PROTUNe, GROW, GROW PLUS, and BIZCLUB Exclusive.
