Join us Tuesday, September 14, 2021, at 3 PM (+8 GMT) for our BizTalks webinar with KSK Land on the topic of Placemaking in an Urban Setting Post Pandemic.

Since the COVID-19 pandemic, placemaking will have a more important role in transforming the property landscape in the future. More than just promoting better urban design, placemaking facilities, usage of creative patterns, attentiveness to the physical, cultural, and social identities that define a place, will support its ongoing evolution.

Placemaking is vital in promoting community bonding and strengthens cultural identity, diversity, and inclusiveness. From a quantitative point of view, improving public spaces also has numerous health, tourism, and commercial advantages.

A press release has been issued by Senior Minister, Minister of International Trade and Industry (MITI) – press release as follows:

Malaysia achieved robust and impressive performance for the first half of 2021 with foreign direct investments (FDI) soaring by 223.1 per cent compared to 1H 2020, signalling the confidence of foreign investors in the country’s stable and conducive economic climate and business ecosystem. This augurs well for Malaysia’s path to vibrant and sustainable economic recovery.

The stellar performance also demonstrates that Malaysia’s strategy of positioning the country as an attractive investment destination of choice and a supply chain hub in ASEAN, particularly for manufacturing operations, is showing positive results. FDI drove the strong and vibrant performance of the manufacturing sector during the period, registering RM58.2 billion in approved investments. The remaining RM8.7 billion approved investments in this sector were from domestic sources.

A media statement has been issued by YAB Prime Minister Dato' Sri Ismail Sabri Yaakob regarding Transformation of Parliament and Government Administration – media statement as follows:

This is in line with the advice of His Majesty, Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Al-Musta’in Billah, and the Malay Rulers on the importance of a stable administration that could function normally in a situation where the country is facing a various crisis.

A media release has been issued by the Ministry of Transport regarding the Loading and Unloading Activities for Import and Export Purposes Allowed to Operate 24 Hours 7 Days A Week – media release as follows:

To further ease the movement of all goods nationwide and make it easier for logistics and transportation companies to conduct business, we are pleased to announce that loading and unloading of non-essential goods for import and export purposes will be allowed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week with immediate effect.
