KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, Jan. 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Starmax Fencing, Malaysia's premier provider of fencing equipment, is excited to announce an equipment sponsorship deal with Saif Nordin, one of Malaysia's most promising young athletes in the sport. This deal is a vital component of Starmax's mission to empower Malaysia's next generation of fencing talent by making quality equipment accessible to fencers at every level, from beginners to high-performance athletes.

"We recognise the importance of supporting young athletes as they pursue their sporting ambitions," said Mr Yap Yew Kong, Advisor to Starmax Fencing. "Parents of young fencers are increasingly looking for equipment that combines quality with affordability, and at Starmax, we are committed to offering products that will serve athletes throughout their career journeys. Our collaboration with Saif exemplifies this dedication as he embodies the passion and potential that Malaysian athletes bring to the global stage."

Starmax Fencing is celebrated as Malaysia's largest online fencing store, offering a full range of products for fencers of all ages and skill levels. With top-notch equipment and exceptional after-sales service, Starmax has quickly become the go-to resource for Malaysian fencers, recently supporting athletes at the SUKMA Games in Sarawak. This new partnership with Saif Nordin highlights Starmax's commitment to nurturing homegrown talent, investing in Malaysia's fencing community, and strengthening the nation's presence in international competitions.

"Starmax has a regional appeal. Malaysia is our hub in ASEAN and we have seen a growing trend of fencers purchasing online and picking up their new equipment when they participate in international tournaments or training camps in Malaysia," concluded Mr. Yap.

For Saif who recently won the bronze medal at the National Junior Championships, this partnership represents a significant boost to his ambitions. "I am honoured to have this sponsorship deal with Starmax Fencing," he said. "When I'm on the piste, I want to know I have the best equipment to support me. Thanks to Starmax, I can focus entirely on my performance, whether competing for my club, my state, or my country."

Through this collaboration, Starmax Fencing is reinforcing its support for Malaysia's sporting ambitions by making high-quality, accessible equipment a reality for emerging athletes. Working with talents like Saif, Starmax is setting the foundation for a stronger future for fencing in Malaysia, where young athletes can aspire to excel on the world stage.

This sponsorship comes on the back of a tie up with Foundation for Malaysian Sporting Excellence (SportExcel), which sees Saif as part of the SportExcel Dedicated Athletes Programme.

This equipment sponsorship deal follows a dynamic collaboration with News Hub Asia (NHA), a media partnership that ensures the 14-year-old fencer gets the media attention needed to highlight the journey of a young sportsperson. News Hub Asia will continue to provide extended coverage on the sporting careers of young athletes as they build a name for themselves on and off the sporting field.

JAKARTA, Indonesia, June 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the outstanding success of its Vietnam debut in 2025, CMES expands to Indonesia with the inaugural CMES Indonesia International Machine Tool Exhibition, taking place September 35, 2026 at the Jakarta International Expo (JIExpo) in Jakarta (Hall B).

Southeast Asia's Manufacturing Hub

As Southeast Asia's largest economy, Indonesia is rapidly advancing under "Making Indonesia 4.0". Metalworking is shifting from traditional casting to high-precision component manufacturing, driven by automotive, electronics, infrastructure, and new energy demand. However, the domestic machine tool industry remains nascent, with about 75% of high-end equipment reliant on imports, presenting a strategic opportunity for international suppliers.

Against this backdrop, our 15,000+ sqm exhibition will bring together leading global machinery brands, showcasing Metal Cutting Machine Tools, Metal Forming Machine Tools, Machine Tool Accessories, Grinding Tools, Industrial Automation & Robotics, etc. Serving downstream industries such as Automotive & Motorcycle Parts Manufacturing, 3C Electronics, Home & Office Appliance Manufacturing, and General Machinery, the exhibition addresses Southeast Asia's growing demand for industrial equipment and smart manufacturing solutions.

China's largest private exhibition organizer

As China's largest private exhibition organizer by space, CMES brings over 23 years of experience, hosting 600,000+㎡ and 600,000+ buyers annually. For example, the 2025 Vietnam edition achieved 600M+ online exposures, 11,602 attendees, and 30,000+ business interactions.

O2O Exhibition & Media Model

With an annual marketing investment exceeding $7 million, CMES Indonesia will leverage a powerful O2O media integration strategy:

  • Digital Media: Collaborating with leading global and Indonesian media including Google, Facebook, Tiktok, Instagram, Twitter, Kompas, Bisnis Indonesia, Jawa Pos, Media Indonesia and so on, combined with content marketing, live streaming, and videos, etc., to drive exponential brand visibility.
  • Offline Visibility: Launching highway billboard and street banners at Jakarta's key transportation hubs and industrial area prior to the exhibition to generate widespread market attention.
  • Intelligent Data Matching: Leveraging smart data analytic to facilitate precise matchmaking between exhibitors, qualified buyers and decision-makers.

In addition, CMES Indonesia establish strategic partnerships with Indonesian government and leading industry associations to host high-level industry summit and International Buyer Matchmaking Meeting, creating a premier platform for driving your business growth.
