According to Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi, two significant announcements are anticipated shortly to strengthen the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ).

According to him, the Investment, Trade, and Industry Ministry is scheduled to make a major investment announcement, and the Economy Minister is anticipated to reveal the JS-SEZ master plan.

“A number of initiatives and efforts to further strengthen economic operations within the zone will be outlined in the next JS-SEZ master plan.

In a Facebook post on 28th February, he stated, “These initiatives are expected to benefit not only the state’s economy but, more importantly, the people of Johor through job creation and expanded business opportunities.”

According to Onn Hafiz, appealing investment prospects pertaining to the special economic zone are anticipated to be announced by the Investment Ministry, adding that he had a thorough conversation about the future of the JS-SEZ with Lee Ting Han, the chairman of the Johor Investment, Commerce, Consumer Affairs and Human Resources committee.

As of September of last year, Johor had registered the largest investment in the nation to date, at RM91 billion, thanks to the backing of all federal and state parties, he further added.
