RM3.23 billion invested into park

US$800 million (RM3.23 billion) has been invested into the park.

RWG’s head of business operations and strategies, Lee Thiam Kit, believes that the park will be a “key contributor to the Malaysian economy”.

Lee added that, “going forward, when we open, there will be jobs created and the park will add economic activity directly and indirectly, as well as give a boost to tourism in Malaysia and Pahang.”

Lee also said that RWG is “committed” to opening the park despite the movement control order (MCO) and the Covid-19 pandemic.

“We’re committed to this park and we will see to it that it opens, barring unforeseen circumstances.”
