KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia has managed to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) worth RM81.9 billion from 240 companies so far this year, says Azmin Ali.

The international trade and industry minister said all the investments were of high quality, including investments in technology, innovation, green technology, electric vehicles and financial technology sectors.

He said the high-quality investment policy was also practised during the trade and investment missions in South Korea and Japan in early April, attracting almost RM7 billion in investments.

“When I was in Seoul and held discussions with the top management of SK Nexilis, they agreed to double their investment in Sabah from RM2.3 billion to RM4.24 billion,” he told Buletin TV3 today.
