00:00My personal opinion is that we have to be the best in class in terms of
00:05facilitating the ease of doing business.
00:08At the end of the day, our investors, above all, I believe they want facilitation.
00:14They want fast processes, clear guidelines, no ambiguity, and fast decision making.
00:22So the agencies and the industrial park managers, they have to facilitate this ease of doing business.
00:31That's of paramount importance.
00:33And secondly, and it's no less important too, is getting the infrastructure ready.
00:41So the ideal industrial park would be where investors can, how do you say, just plug and play.
00:48They just can come in and set up their factory or businesses with minimal costs.
00:54So if the infra is ready, and if we can do so, we build factory buildings or premises
01:05according to their specifications.
01:06So they can come in and, how do you say, hit the ground running without any delays or worry.
01:17And as a bonus, we have tax incentives or other land incentives which will be the sweetener for these investors.
01:29Because if we can get all these elements into play, I think it's done a great chance to attract a
01:34high quality investment.
01:37Because we must remember, we are actually competing with other countries for investment as well, especially in ASEAN, right?
01:46So we have to up the ante when it comes to facilitation.
01:51Otherwise, they have other choices too. They can easily go to the neighboring countries.
01:54So if we don't so-called get our act together.
