SINGAPORE – Singapore and Malaysia are in talks to establish a special economic zone in Johor and the Republic to drive growth and strengthen connectivity and collaboration, said Minister for National Development Desmond Lee on Friday.
It will report its progress to Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and his Malaysian counterpart Anwar Ibrahim at the Singapore-Malaysia Leaders’ Retreat in October, Mr Desmond Lee and Malaysian Minister of Economy Rafizi Ramli said at a joint press conference in Shangri-La hotel. They made the announcement on the sidelines of the JMCIM meeting, an annual event for the two countries to review cooperation in the South Johor economic zone of Iskandar.
Johor recorded RM70.6 billion worth of foreign investments in 2022 alone, across various sectors including electrical and electronics, medical equipment, food manufacturing and data centres, with Singapore being the second-largest foreign investor. He added that the areas of cooperation will follow from what has been done under the JMCIM, such as in transport connectivity, innovation, business ecosystem, environment, tourism, and technical and skills training.
Johor has the potential to be the biggest beneficiary of Malaysia’s focus on the energy sector’s shift from fossil fuels to renewables, given its proximity to Singapore, he said. This is supported by Malaysia’s announcement that month that it would lift its export ban on renewable energy, added Mr Rafizi, according to a Bernama news agency report.
