Bid to finalise crucial SEZ terms

JOHOR BARU: Leaders from Malaysia and Singapore will meet later this month to finalise the terms of reference on a proposed special economic zone (SEZ) of which Johor is expected to be the main beneficiary compared with other states in the country.

“The SEZ is important for Johor as we want to reignite the people’s imagination over the Iskandar Malaysia area and to bring in more investors to the region,” said Johor investment, trade and consumer affairs committee chairman Lee Ting Han.
