KUALA LUMPUR, March 10 (Bernama) — Kuala Lumpur once again emerged as one of the top destinations for investors in 2021, attracting the third-highest investments approved in Malaysia after Pulau Pinang and Kedah.
The national capital recorded RM37.7 billion in investments last year, an increase from RM17.1 billion in 2020. More importantly, Kuala Lumpur is a major host of the country’s diversified services sector that continued to expand with intensified digitalisation last year, accounting for a substantial portion of the high-technology and high-value investments nationwide with a strong focus on innovation, said InvestKL Chief Executive Officer, Muhammad Azmi Zulkifli.
