Enterprise Singapore executive chairman Lee Chuan Teck said that since the signing of the JS-SEZ agreement, the Singapore JS-SEZ Joint Project Office and its Malaysian counterparts have received more than 1,000 inquiries from companies in the manufacturing, data centre and logistics sectors.
He noted that "much has been done" to promote the region.
For example, EDB and the Malaysian Investment Development Authority recently led two joint missions, drawing strong interest and positive feedback from businesses and investors keen to explore new opportunities and partnerships in the region.
Malaysia's Invest Malaysia Facilitation Centre - Johor serves as a single window for permit applications.
"This streamlined approach has already helped some companies reduce approval timelines from the usual six months to just two," said Mr Lee.
Efforts are also under way to build a pipeline of skilled talent through partnerships between Singapore and Malaysian institutions.
