Kulim attracted AT&S and likely to start operation 2024, creating 6,000 jobs.



https://www.nst.com.my/business/2022/07/812...-start-ops-2024

Meanwhile, i checked there are no new investment at Bayan Lepas Industrial Park. Now Penang gov more focus on real estates surrounding Bayan Lepas and PSI.
If this, clearly Kulim Hi-Tech Park will slowly gain its momentum after its expansion, citing 5G coverage will be fully ready all over the park as early next year.

For Penang, I think they should just prioritize fixing their broken road infrastructure that keeps on bottleneck at the Red Bridge area....

Also should start diverting traffic to Batu Maung area to go airport for those coming from Georgetown.

Doesn't make sense, all route through SPICE area to airport.

Attracting new companies wise, Penang FIZ area seems abit crowded edi.
Even AMD doesn't want to put their engineers at FIZ area.

Heard they rented buildings / floors Working at Hotel Equatorial Penang

LGBT liked this logo.

Penang expansion for industrial is now focused more on Batu Kawan

Where is the vote for Batu Kawan Industrial Park? they now focusing there instead

Not high tech industrial park like Kulim and Bayan Lepas. More like HICOM Glenmarie jer.

I find it a good balance between Residential and Industrial area there.
Since now still mostly dead ghost town.

Just only need to fix it bring move the local georgetown hotspot down to batu kawan only.

are u joking?
do u need route from ur house direct to airport ?

But the shit smell and flies, not for human stay one Well thats many years ago around pearl city area, not sure how was it now

thats old news.. now they moving to FIZ in 2024.

Park Lebai > All

Kulim airport cancelled liao what. Later intel also move to Batu Kawan coz two more industrial parks will be opened there BKIP 2 and BKIP 3 around batu kawan

I think you are not getting the bottleneck area I'm mentioning.
My rental room nearby Relau / Golden Triangle actually is really close to airport like RM 12 Grab ride.

If I wanted to order Grab from PG8/PG12, I saw the fare was like RM 30-50 during peak hours, I immediate frown face.
So I spent an hour walking back from Intel PG12 (Red Bridge) to Golden Triangle with my luggage.

Because my company stopped their SPICE Arena Shuttle Bus service... Normally 20 mins can walk back my condo from SPICE.

During 5pm the jam is so horrible the next RapidPenang frequency is like an hour each for this area.




Can read more my complaints here: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/5281397

ada ker?

Intel Pelican project still haven't complete so fast want add new plant to batu kawan liao?

here day2 jem jem jem, roti already habis, jem havent habis

Dunno I went to Batu Kawan few times ok kot.
Pearl City macam closer to Simpang Ampat? Hardly go on Mainland.
Island easier to explore and more fun

open so many bkip yet 0 fuel station. charkoewtiau place failed max

No pork no good.

u dah pindah sini long ago?
I remember u kl orang.

I only return to penang balik office few times a year only.
but soon 3 days per week. pening

Batu Kawan industrial park?

u think Bayan Lepas is the only park?

everybody sked of lebai-lebai there.

Where is BKiP? That is the new ipark, you still stuck at BLiP? I not penang lang also know about this new

If really kulim ipark can maju, what it so-clamed, it would have been so a decade ago

Kulim more chillax. The traffic light also smart. Unlike other place where it was time based. Cannot tahan

CharKoeyTeow upcar kao2 at BKIP
Potholes everywhere
Korek here and there
Then patch like using plasters
Car bearings also rosak change every few months
Divert traffic flow macam main lego
3 lanes outgoing flow become 1
C him santai at KopiBin

no lah, been here so long already since bujang lagi lol.

this year move out to mainland

this confirmed fuel station? iday2 pass i tot they want to build market lol

go everywhere also dust dust dust

janji perlojek masyuk

BKiP infra packages cannot la at the moment.

Pelican test run 2nd half 2023. Full production by 2024.

means you moved to penang very long edi?

Well, hopefully mainland suites you more and lesser jam

LOL

your company PROBLEM and u want PG gov change for u, GOOD brilliant. ...

lol. even you drive in penang there abit not for human at peak hours, 6.30am, 5pm

I don't think you comprehend the problem how many precious hours and efforts wasted in jam accumulated in a lifetime.
Hopefully Penang LRT faster built

Otherwise, you want government for what, they sit there and get free tax payer money?
Of course improve publics quality of life. Not worsen it.

You mean the state of new BKip still not good enough to dish out more jobs to penang kia now?

New ma, still developing in phases. You need this if want new fdi. Its a long economic runway.

You tok kok la.
Kulim Hi-tech not everything there high tech.
FYI HICOM is in Kulim!

I can assure it's more high tech than you think. Malaysia's first IR4.0 certified lighthouse is there. BKIP factories are much larger and more modern than the majority of the Bayan Lepas ones.

Why should Intel move to BK?

Current asset on the island & Kulim pun belum max out.
Massive construction at PG12 pun belum siap.
Financial forecast oso no good.

Tis pic is very recent

why need to go to offce at peak hours. go lah during other hours. janji tunjuk muka at office for few hours for each of the 3 days. can lah.

this

^^
This, either kam veli early liek rtk or come late

"provided no meeting clash"

Good job. But need to attract more FDI. Kulim got AT&S.

LOL.Relau not for human stay wan......go QB also need 30 mins...the amount of traffic lights.....Wait Icon city gets populated, it'll be even shittier.

Office have full blast air cond and stable WiFi.

Also cheap breakfast served at 7.30am compared to what pricing Relau now serves, also i can’t find good breakfast spots here at this hours. 🤣 can just directly buka laptop at cafeteria chill with Milo eating breakfast slow slow scroll email. Order egg omelette. since morning reach office early 4pm pack bags leave office avoid jam.

Tap in and tap out.

It’s ok at least I can get dinner at SPICE. If my mixed rice store sold out.

I consider will move out find some lesser jam area. Once I see pricing is right.


But then I paying RM 350 for a 10x10ft room with shared parking with fridge, hot shower and air cond included. Haven’t include WiFi utilities. I haven’t somewhere else which beat this price

That's pretty good price given current rate. I remember renting a whole room in a landed house with AC and own bathroom and parking for rm290 at sunway tunas. Owner was very nice to not raise the rental for almost 10 years before I moved out in 2014

soooo long ago.

better than the lebai package one.

I'm oldfag.

That's what I do

Rich....


Getting same room type with wifi but no parking, aircond billed seperate.
Paying double

I don't see it as a big deal whether FDI comes to Kedah or Penang. It's left pocket and right pocket from the larger perspective, and is part of the same Greater Penang electronics manufacturing ecosystem. Largely manufacturers will be relying on / competing for the same pool of talent to man the factories, and there will be spill over effects that benefit the whole region.
