A total of 249 new projects worth more than RM7 billion in investments were approved in Selangor since Pakatan Rakyat took over the state government last year.
Chairperson of the Permanent State Committee for Investments, Industrialisation and Trade, Teresa Kok, said out of the investments between March 2008 and July this year, about RM2.667 billion were local investments and RM4.336 billion foreign investments.
"The new projects, approved by the Malaysian Industrial Development Authority (Mida) and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (Miti), have the capacity to provide some 18,166 job opportunities for the locals in Selangor," she said during the Selangor State Assembly in Shah Alam today.
She said this in reply to a question from M Manoharan (DAP-Kota Alam Shah) who wanted to know the amount of new investments in Selangor since Pakatan took over the state control from Barisan Nasional in March last year.
Among the areas of focus for foreign investors in the state are Shah Alam where 4,870 employment opportunities were created, Klang (4,082), Port Klang (1,404), Pulau Lumut and Pulau Indah (655), Subang (783), Puchong (956), Semenyih (363), Banting (121), Kapar (477), Balakong (187) and Kajang (340).
