In his speech at the event, Mr Devanesan Evanson, President of ACCA Malaysia Advisory Committee said, 'Carlos Slim Helu, Mexico's telecom tycoon and this year's world richest man according to Forbes Magazine, has been known to say time and again that you can't do it all yourself, you have to form alliances. ACCA could not agree more with this premise. Partnerships are crucially important to ACCA.
