"The government is providing a lot of assistance like for instance the Terengganu Entrepreneur Development Foundation which is focused on assisting 30 entrepreneurs market their products overseas via the "Groom Big" programme," he told Bernama Monday.

Roslee said new and young entrepreneurs in the state would be assisted and guided by consultants via various workshops and courses.

"All they have to do is get in touch with agencies that conduct such workshops and courses and sign up for them.

"They can obtain assistance in the form of capital and advice," he added.
