Chinese investors eye opportunities in Labuan – Zaliha Mustafa

LABUAN: Several industrial firms in China are eyeing investment opportunities in Labuan, particularly within the island’s financial and development sectors.

Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Federal Territories) Dr Zaliha Mustafa emphasised the significance of these interests, underscoring Labuan’s potential as a viable economic hub in Asia.

Dr Zaliha said her recent visit to key Chinese cities – Hangzhou, Shanghai, and Shenzhen – was instrumental in building relationships and fostering investor interest.

“During my visit, we engaged with potential investors who are keen to explore business opportunities in Labuan, particularly in financial and development fields,” she told reporters after the Labuan Para SUKMA athlete incentives presentation here tonight.

Dr Zaliha also stressed the importance of sustained engagement with these interested investors to ensure that proposed ventures come to fruition.

“Follow-ups with these parties are crucial to converting these discussions into concrete business investments that will benefit the island,” she said.

In support of Labuan’s growth, Dr Zaliha said Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has designated the island as a priority area within the national agenda to address basic amenities and security improvements.

Dr Zaliha said the Finance Ministry (MoF) has committed to providing funds, either directly or through various ministries, to support Labuan’s socio-economic development.

She also provided updates on several task forces set up to advance Labuan’s tourism, transhipment capabilities and connecting Labuan to Sabah via a bridge.

“The tourism task force is not only focused on enhancing Labuan’s tourism offerings but also aims to improve accessibility for tourists and locals alike.

“The transhipment task force is actively progressing, and the bridge linking Labuan to Sabah’s mainland is advancing with the Works Ministry approving a RM500,000 allocation for an initial feasibility study.

“These task forces are fully operational, and several key discussions have already taken place,” Dr Zaliha said.

  2. Meriton Suites Coward Street, Mascot is a luxury hotel positioned only 10 minutes’ drive
    from the domestic airport and 15 minutes’ drive from the international
    airport. Designed to delight every palate, the array of culinary experiences includes Crown’s spectacular, signature
    fine dining venues led by some of the most esteemed chefs
    in the world. Whether you’re after a fine dining experience or casual
    bite to eat, we’ve got you covered for all occasions.

    Amid spectacular views of Australia’s iconic harbour, taste some of the best dishes from internationally acclaimed chefs.
    With perfectly framed views of Sydney’s skyline,
    each room heralds sophisticated, modern decor capturing the essence of the gorgeous and
    unique harbourside setting. Rising majestically above the
    bustling Barangaroo precinct, Crown Towers offers unparalleled luxury stays in Sydney.

    Despite the development’s approval, the Millers Point Fund lodged legal action against
    the project in early August 2016 challenging the validity of the casino and
    aiming to have construction on the project halted. An observation deck on the
    66th floor from a height of 250 metres (820 feet) above ground, as well as public
    access to the upper floors, was also proposed.
    In November 2013, it was announced that Crown Sydney
    had received approval for the casino licence and place at Barangaroo.
    Following public backlash, the height of the tower
    was lowered to 159 metres (522 feet) and the length of the
    pier was reduced to 85 metres (279 feet). Initial concepts for a hotel development in Barangaroo as part of its urban redevelopment plan first circulated in 2010.

    A shortlist of designs from Adrian Smith + Gordon Gill, Kohn Pedersen Fox and WilkinsonEyre were subsequently selected and a
    jury panel was formed to select the hotel’s final design and Principal Architect.
    In 2013, Crown Resorts launched a design competition, seeking expressions
    of interest from eight architecture firms with experience in similar hospitality focused projects.
    Initial site works commenced in October 2016, starting with
    an excavation and decontamination of the site, mostly of remnants of asbestos; indicative of the site’s industrial history.
    On 23 April 2024, the NSW Independent Casino Commission reinstated Crown Sydney’s unconditional casino
    licence. Following a complete overhaul of
    Crown Resort’s board, management and procedures, a conditional
    licence was finally granted for the casino in June 2022, allowing for
    its opening in August 2022. Despite the inability of the casino to open,
    other operations within the Crown Sydney building were unaffected.
