Bidding process for RRI land to start by year-end
The prequalification process for bids for the Rubber Research Institutes of Malaysia (RRI) land in Sungai Buloh, Selangor, will start by the end of this year, says a source close to the Employees Provident Fund (EPF). The source said EPF would call for the prequalification bids as soon as it gets the government's nod for the proposed development of the land. Pre-qualification bids would be opened to developers who meet the requirements, he said.
EPF is the land owner and master developer of the project. It is buying 890ha of the available 1,215ha RRI agricultural land from the Federal Government for over RM2bil. The pension fund is expected to carve out the land in parcels of 20ha to 200ha each, depending on the use of it. The idea is to build low-end to luxury housing and commercial properties.
The balance of the RRI land is to house the Malaysian Rubber Board hub (217ha) and the My Rapid Transit (MRT) Sungai Buloh depot (72ha). The master planning for the land development is being carried out by EPF's wholly-owned unit, Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd.
An official from the EPF said Malaysian Resources Corp Bhd (MRCB) was not involved in the master planning. ' Business Times
