ALOR SETAR: The newly launched Kedah Rubber City (KRC) project is expected to generate some 15,000 employment opportunities for Malaysians and attract RM10bil worth of investment by 2025, says the Prime Minister.

Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the project had already attracted RM4bil in investments even though it had just been officially launched.
