MIRI (June 28): Malaysian developer TAK Group is eyeing to forge closer ties between Sarawak and Brunei, following a high-level meeting with Muara Port Company (MPC) in the sultanate on Friday. TAK Group founder and chairman Teo Ah Khing and MPC chief operating officer Fazilah Yassin met up for a two-hour session, which also involved officials from the Brunei Economic Development Board (BEDB). In the meeting, Teo highlighted TAK Group's flagship project, Kenyalang Smart City, currently being developed here through its subsidiary, IMASA Dinasti Sdn Bhd. 'This project aligns with Sarawak's Post-Covid-19 Development Strategy (PCDS) 2030, which aims to create jobs and grow the economy through innovation, sustainability, and digital transformation. 'Kenyalang Smart City is a smart idea built in Miri City. 'As Miri and Brunei economies become more connected, especially in the oil and gas sector, Muara Port will play a bigger role in moving goods and people between both sides,' he said. After the meeting, MPC brought the TAK Group delegation on a guided tour of its port facilities to showcase its operations and explore how future trade and logistics might run through the port. The MPC is Brunei's main port operator. It is a joint venture between Darussalam Assets Sdn Bhd and Beibu Gulf Holding (Hong Kong) Co Ltd. The company took over full management of Muara Port in July 2018, and has since played a central role in the sultanate's import-export and logistics systems. The Kenyalang Smart City is an ambitious new township in Miri designed to be sustainable, green and technology-driven. It will feature smart infrastructure like intelligent transport systems, renewable energy, and digital public services. In addition to business and residential areas, the city will include cultural and civic hubs such as the Kenyalang Convention and Exhibition Centre (KCEC), a Performing Arts Centre, and a Cultural Heritage Museum. brunei Muara Port Company TAK Group
