Today I attended a product launch event at one of those hotels in downtown Kuala Lumpur. It was an event where a lot of people came dressed in suits and blazers. One important detail which everyone seems to have forgotten is the pocket square. Or the handkerchief that should reside in the jacket's breast pocket.
I had mine, but no one else seems to have remembered theirs. In a formal, semi formal or business-like function one should pay extra attention to this detail. A matching tie would be nice if required.

i thought the rule was tht the pocket square should not match ie. not have the same pattern as the tie.
Hello,
The traditional rule is that the pocket square matches the tie. These days they think that is considered as trying too hard and the current trend is that you do not match the two items. Notice that these days it is more informal, more are mixing jackets with trousers instead of suits. I believe the same applies.
Regards
