Kota Kinabalu: Sabah will develop two new industrial parks to stimulate economic growth and industries in line with the current state government’s investor-friendly approach.
Chief Minister Datuk Seri Hajiji Noor said one of the parks will be developed in Kimanis for the oil and gas industry.
The other, to be located in the Kota Marudu-Kota Belud area, will be a general industrial park.
He said the move follows the two existing industrial parks – the Sipitang Oil and Gas Industrial Park and Kota Kinabalu Industrial Park – almost reaching full occupation.
