JOHOR BARU: Johor Corp (JCorp) is positioning Tanjung Langsat Industrial Complex in Johor Baru as the regional biofuel hub and has received “serious” enquiries from six local and foreign parties intending to locate refining facilities and biodiesel plants there, said group chief executive Tan Sri Muhammad Ali Hashim.
“These six plants combined are likely to account for more than 400,000 tonnes of biodiesel per annum in one single location,” he told a press conference after the signing of the joint-venture agreement between Johor Corp subsidiary Kulim (M) Bhd and Germany-based Peter Cremer (S) GmbH yesterday for the setting up of two biodiesel plants, one each in Malaysia and Singapore.
