URBANISATION IS A DRIVER FOR GNI GROWTH

As countries like Malaysia transition into a service-based economy, large and

urbanised cities become more critical, with their concentration of infrastructure, talent

and economic inter-relationships that support the economic transformation.

• Summary

VISION: Attract 100 MNCs to establish regional HQ in Greater KL

CURRENT SITUATION IDENTIFIED PROBLEMS

PROPOSED SOLUTIONS AND BIG IDEAS Estimated incremental annual GNI impact in 2020

▪ There are currently ~1,600 foreign companies in Greater KL – this lags behind Singapore (~6,100) and Shanghai (~17,000)

▪ Lack of focus on “anchor tenants” (i.e. major MNCs), which generate large GNI and employment impact

▪ No agency focused on specifically promoting Greater KL

▪ Value proposition lags behind Singapore and Hong Kong in attracting MNCs

▪ Deliver the most competitive incentive package to attract MNC HQ

▪ Set up Invest KL to focus on attracting MNCs HQ to Greater KL, and facilitate the approval and relocation process

▪ Fully leverage Greater KL’s other initiatives to communicate an integrated Greater KL value proposition to potential targets

RM ~40 bln

Main drivers:

▪ Revenue and employment generated by MNCs, which establish regional HQ and operations in GKL

Incentives Sector

Liberalization Talent Program Intellectual

Property

Cohesive Incentive Blueprint for Malaysia – a comprehensive ‘menu’ of existing incentives and qualifying criteria.

Budget 2012 announced by the PM included liberalization of 17 subsectors. Subsector liberalization will have a significant impact on MNC attraction (i.e. Engineering subsector – registration of foreign engineers).

Working with Talent Corp to define and implement a program to position Malaysia as a Regional Talent Centre (Malaysia’s Talent Blueprint)

IP blueprint, consisting of all elements of IP protection, is being drafted.

What did we do to achieve the target?

• TalentCorp was set up in December 2010

• Detailed talent attraction programmes were identified to enable and facilitate foreign

immigration and domestic migration and the return of members of the Malaysian

Diaspora.

• TalentCorp also reached out to JPA scholars from abroad and from local institutions for

the Talent Acceleration in Public Service (TAPS) and Scholarship Talent Attraction and

Retention (STAR) Programmes.

How we did it?

• Developing immigration policy measures to facilitate entry and retention of foreign talent - Residence Pass (RP) - Employment Permit (EP)

EPP 6: GREENER KUALA LUMPUR

Promote green redevelopment

▪ Design “green development1” for major redevelopments

▪ Redevelop government land into green areas

▪ Incentivize and reclaim key spots for green development

▪ Ensure privatized land from UKAS adheres the “green development” design

▪ Increase density of existing green space ▪ Green rooftops of existing buildings ▪ Build “vertical garden”, where trees and

plants are in vertical landscape to reduce space occupation

▪ Connect multiple parks with green trails to create “one park”

▪ Designate and promote park space for public events (e.g., concert, performances)

Increase green density

Interconnecting parks and increasing

park usage

Initiative

Increase green density

• Planting of large shaded trees

• Large trees are of diameter of more than 2 inches to ensure sustainability

▪ Total trees planted in Kuala Lumpur is 31,447 trees

to be approved) ▪ Phase 2b (Jalan P. Ramlee / Jalan Sultan Ismail to

Jalan Pinang, to be approved)

Comprehensive Plan ~42km ▪ Major spine (~3km) ▪ Primary route (~14km)

– High pedestrian traffic between major locations and transit nodes

– ~3-5 years to complete construction ▪ Secondary route

– First wave (~9km) – Second wave (~16km)

Connectivity

• MRT and High Speed Rail – Many work packages available

NKEA GKL/KV – Opportunities for the Construction Sector

Direct Construction Opportunities Construction / Job Opportunities from EPPs within GKL/KV

New Areas / Re-generation of Existing Areas

• River of Life – the cleaning, beautification and development processes come in many work packages

• Iconic places – new buildings/development earmarked as tourist attraction for example Malaysia Truly Asia Centre, Warisan Merdeka Building

• New development townships – Pudu Jail redevelopment, Bandar Malaysia, RRI Sg Buloh, KLIFD

• Preservation of heritage buildings/sites – requires specialised construction works

Basic Services

• Solid Waste Management, Water Services and Sewerage Service –

construction of new plants, increase and improve services network/pipelines

• Infrastructure – roads, bridges, flyovers/interchange

36

Connectivity

• MRT and High Speed Rail - development /re-generation of buildings

within the surrounding areas and along the rail corridors

NKEA GKL/KV – Opportunities for the Construction Sector

Indirect Construction Opportunities Other than direct construction opportunities, EPPs will spur growth in property development which brings about

construction job opportunities

New Areas / Re-generation of Existing Areas

• River of Life – once river is cleaned and beautified, more development

projects will be inevitable as these prime lands are set for high-end

properties

• Iconic places – boost tourism industry hence increase demand for

hotels/budget

accommodation, arts and culture centres, preservation of heritage buildings

etc.

Attractions

• MNC Attraction – Large Corporations/Multi-National Companies’ relocation

• Talent Attraction – Human capital growth

Major Concerns Relating to the Construction Industry

With construction being the Enabler for other economic sectors, the areas of concern are:

Manpower requirements

• Are we training enough professionals / skilled workers to fulfill the

construction needs in the future?

Environmental concerns

• Construction is one of the largest contributors to CO2 emissions. Is green technology adequately applied to promote sustainability and address concerns like availability of raw materials and resources in the future?

• Recycling of C&D waste in itself generates new business opportunities for this sector.

R&D and Latest Construction Know-How

• Is the industry doing enough to promote innovative ideas /

methods?
