PUTRAJAYA: Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala Development Co. will enter into a strategic partnership with 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MD) to build KL International Financial Centre (KLIFC) which will cost RM26 billion.

Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak said on Friday, Oct 8 the KLIFC will provide significant stimulus for the CONSTRUCTION [] industry. It would also promote economic growth, attract investments and create jobs.

Construction of the KLIFC is expected to start in mid-2011, he said at the signing of agreement between Mubadala Development and 1MD.

Mudabala had also agreed to invest of up to US$7 billion in the development of the aluminium sector in Sarawak, with the power source from hydroelectric power.
 
How does a nice shiny building promote economic growth, attract investments and create jobs? It only makes the construction barons and the civil servants richer.
 
Remember the KL land scam, port klang free zone ?
This is part II ............
