Geely Will Increase Investment In Malaysia - PM Anwar
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim stated that ZHEJIANG Geely Holding Group Co Ltd (Geely) intends to increase its investment in the country, including strengthening Malaysia as a vehicle manufacturing hub for export purposes.
Anwar, who received a courtesy visit from Geely chairman Li Shufu yesterday, stated that the meeting demonstrates that Geely is following through on its committed investment of RM32 billion announced during his March official visit to China.
“The Chinese automobile manufacturer also plans to increase its participation in the field of research and development as well as the provision of local skilled workers, in line with the needs of the industry in the future.
“I am confident this initiative will be fruitful for our country’s economy,” said Anwar in a post on his Facebook page.
For the record, Geely is a global automotive giant and a strategic partner of DRB-Hicom Bhd, a Malaysian conglomerate.
