TA Research said Johor plays a crucial role in Malaysia’s economic landscape with its diverse economic base.
PETALING JAYA: Eight stock sectors are emerging as key beneficiaries of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ), which launched in early January, aiming to strengthen economic cooperation and build synergy to attract global investments.
TA Research, which prepared a report following a visit to the state with institutional clients, said the initiatives would help lift Johor’s economy, especially in addressing the many issues that have plagued Iskandar Malaysia, including connectivity between the nine flagship zones identified under the JS-SEZ and connectivity between Johor and Singapore, among others.
