PETALING JAYA: Johor is in for a Golden Age the next 10 years after receiving several investment plans and initiatives from the Federal government over the past few years.
Besides Iskandar Malaysia, which has received accumulated investments of RM262bil, the state government wants to bring development to other areas beyond Johor’s southern region.
“Johor State Investment Centre (JSIC) and Iskandar Regional Development Authority (Irda) have been working closely to attract investors into Johor, which will help boost the economy,” said Puah.
The SDV aims to become one of the leading digital hubs in the region, attracting high capital and technology investments.
Property developers are predicting demand for houses and commercial space to benefit from the overwhelming high-paying technology jobs available in the area.
