KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 21 (Bernama) -- The implementation of the Kerian Integrated Green Industrial Park (KIGIP) development is one of the fastest in history, with planning permission approval obtained in less than three months from the launch date.
Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry (MITI) Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Abdul Aziz said that normally, this process takes more than six months.
"The project is on track and is now closely monitored by the Special Task Force led by MITI (investment wing) and Perak's Economic Planning Unit," he said when presenting the MITI Report Card for the third quarter of 2024 here on Monday.
The KIGIP groundbreaking ceremony was officiated by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim in August.
According to Tengku Zafrul, the land study is being carried out by SD Guthrie Bhd for the soil treatment process, which is expected to start in January 2025.
“We are grateful to the Perak government and the relevant ministries for speeding up the process," he said.
The KIGIP project is implemented in a whole-of-government approach through collaboration and synergy between the federal government, the state government as well as SD Guthrie and Permodalan Nasional Bhd.
