Putra World Trade Centre
Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC) is a main convention and exhibition centre, in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Construction commenced in 1981 and was completed in 1984. The building was officially opened on 2 September 1985, by the, then, Malaysian prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohammad, during the first UMNO General Assembly, and has been a staging area for following UMNO General Assemblies since.
This building is also used for the International Quran Reading Competition every year, since it was moved from Stadium Merdeka in 1985.
PWTC is accessible through public transport by the PWTC LRT station on the Ampang Line or the Putra Komuter station on the Rawang-Seremban Line and Sentul-Port Klang Line.
