STATE POLLS | More job opportunities can be created in Kedah if the state's leadership is aligned with the federal government, Deputy Prime Minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said.
He said this was because the influx of foreign investments has created many employment opportunities.
The BN chairperson questioned the lack of development in Kedah despite its proximity to Penang since there were claims that Selangor has benefited from its proximity to Kuala Lumpur.
He said the additional investment of RM30 billion by a German company in Kulim would create a good employment hub in Kedah.
“Currently, Kulim Hi-Tech Park accommodates about 40,000 jobs but remember that it falls under the federal government's jurisdiction, and we continue to support investors who wish to invest in this area.
“If the Kedah government is aligned with the federal government, Insya-Allah, we will help provide Kedahans with even more employment opportunities,” he said.
Zahid said this at the launch of the MYFuturejobs career carnival with Wanita Umno and the Family Affairs Council in Kepala Batas today.
