MBW Innexus Industrial City to create 37,000 jobs with RM2 billion GDV
JOHOR BAHRU: The MBW Innexus Industrial City project with a gross development value of RM2 billion is projected to create approximately 37,000 employment opportunities across various skill levels. Minister of Investment, Trade and Industry Tengku Datuk Seri Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz confirmed this significant development for Malaysia's industrial landscape. He stated that the project represents a major milestone in the nation's industrial journey. Tengku Zafrul emphasized that these employment opportunities will generate long-term benefits for Malaysia's workforce, businesses, and local communities. 'Those 37,000 jobs are not just statistics, but opportunities that will uplift families and transform communities,' he declared during the project launch. The minister further explained that MBW Innexus will expand Malaysia's industrial base significantly. He noted the project will specifically support small and medium enterprises while strengthening regional competitiveness. The industrial city spans 296 hectares of prime land located in Tanjung Langsat, Johor Bahru. This strategic development falls within Flagship D of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone. Its positioning places it within Southeast Asia's industrial 'Golden Triangle' connecting Tanjung Langsat, Pasir Gudang, and Singapore's Jurong. Tengku Zafrul highlighted the corridor's unique potential to become the region's most connected industrial cluster. 'This corridor offers investors unrivalled cross-border supply chain integration,' he affirmed. The development will benefit from JS-SEZ's pilot policies designed to reduce bureaucratic hurdles. These policies will accelerate investor processes in immigration, customs, and investment approvals. Talent mobility initiatives will also be streamlined under these special economic zone provisions. The project's proximity to leading educational institutions provides additional advantages. Universiti Teknologi Malaysia and Politeknik Ibrahim Sultan will ensure a steady pipeline of skilled workers. This educational connectivity will create collaboration opportunities between multinational corporations and local SMEs. Tengku Zafrul emphasized strong alignment between federal government, Johor state government, and private sector partners. This collaboration reflects Malaysia's commitment to being pro-business, pro-investment, and pro-industry. 'Our message is simple: Malaysia is not only a safe place to invest, but a long-term partner for growth,' he stated. He concluded that Johor's strategic location and dynamic economy position it perfectly for next-generation industrial investments. - Bernama

AmBank Targets Loan Growth In Line With Industry, Aims FY2026 Net Profit To Exceed RM2 Bln
BUSINESS KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 20 (Bernama) -- AMMB Holdings Bhd (AmBank) expects its loan growth to keep pace with the industry at around 4 per cent this year, driven mainly by business banking and wholesale segments, while retail loans are expected to remain flat. Group chief executive officer Jamie Ling said the bank's focus will remain on higher-return portfolios. 'Business banking loans grew 12 per cent last year (financial year 2025 ended March 31, 2025), wholesale banking expanded 7 per cent, while retail declined by 2 per cent as we prioritised quality and returns over market share,' he said at a media briefing after the group's 34th annual general meeting here today. He said the group is also aiming to surpass last year's record net profit of RM2 billion. 'In the first quarter of the current financial year (1Q FY2026), we posted RM516 million in net profit, keeping the group on track despite softer investor sentiment and market uncertainties. 'We want to beat last year's record. That is the ambition,' Ling said, noting that volatility in trading and opportunities in wholesale and business lending could help sustain momentum. He said volatility signals uncertainty, but for a bank's market division, it can boost revenue streams, especially when coupled with solid demand for business and wholesale banking services. On margins, Ling said AmBank achieved a record net interest margin (NIM) of 2.01 per cent last year, the highest since he took office (in Nov 2023). However, with the recent overnight policy rate cut, this is expected to compress full-year NIM by three to four basis points to around 1.96-1.97 per cent.
