In 2021, ANGKASA is celebrating its 50th anniversary with the theme, Championing Cooperative Aspirations.” This is a big milestone for the Malaysian cooperative movement on the momentous Golden Jubilee achievement.  

ANGKASA was established through consensus achieved at the 2nd Malaysian Cooperative Congress and was officially registered on 12th May 1971. A year later, ANGKASA became a member of the ICA in April 1972. Even before ANGKASA as an organization became a member, Malaysia was already among the first member countries of ICA in the Asia and Pacific region.

ANGKASA is planning a celebratory campaign throughout the year, as part of which, a documentary #ANGKASA50 will be created.

Congratulating them, Mr. Balasubramanian Iyer, Regional Director, ICA-AP, saidsaid, “Congratulations to ICA and ICA-AP member ANGKASA, Malaysia as it celebrates #ANGKASA50! “Championing Cooperative Aspirations” reflects past, present and future! We are delighted to have Malaysia as a member from 1960 and ANGKASA since its inception in 1971! Our best wishes!”
