Melaka exco Muhammad Jailani Khamis claims that the state will host ASEAN’s first Disney City in Jasin, with construction to begin in 2027.
“Keluasannya sekitar 150 hingga 200 ekar,” he said.
However, it was not known if Disney reps were present at the project’s MoU signing. According to TV3, among those present at the press conference were Taming Sari Berhad, Institusi Perbankan (Exim Credit Dubai Zurich Capital Bank & Sparco Bank UK), and Korea Camping Caravanning Federation A Divisional Corporation.
The MoU proposal includes the development of Disney City and a 22km maglev system to connect hotspots in Melaka.
Jailani says Melaka aims to increase its number of tourists to 20 million within 3 years, from 18.7 million tourists in 2019.
“…dengan nilai pelaburan 200 juta dolar bersamaan RM900 juta, secara keseluruhan projek ini boleh mencapai hingga RM2 bilion,” Jailani said.
He was heard saying this on a YouTube video, uploaded by Melaka’s official media, Melaka TV.
BFM News has reached out to Disney for confirmation.
