He was speaking at the investiture ceremony in conjunction with the 83rd birthday celebration of the Sultan of Kedah, Al-Aminul Karim Sultan Sallehuddin Sultan Badlishah, at Istana Anak Bukit here today. According to Muhammad Sanusi, investors' willingness to invest in Kedah was a manifestation of the stability, transparency, and effectiveness of the state government's policies. Meanwhile, he said the development of the Border Town Corridor has shown positive progress, particularly with the opening of the Inland Clearance Depot (ICD), a logistics hub at the Delapan Special Border Economic Zone in Bukit Kayu Hitam. He said the hub is capable of attracting additional container traffic estimated at 240,000 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) from southern Thailand, potentially contributing up to RM843 million annually to Kedah's gross domestic product. 'This border town development is further supported by the construction of a connecting road between the Bukit Kayu Hitam Immigration, Customs, Quarantine and Security Complex and the Sadao Customs, Immigration and Quarantine Complex in Thailand, which is expected to be completed by September.
