LANGKAWI: Tradewinds Corporation Bhd's subsidiary, Benua Mahsuri Sdn Bhd, will build an international-standard resort hotel on this duty-free island.
Langkawi Development Authority (LADA) chief executive officer Tan Sri Khalid Ramli said this would draw more affluent tourists to Langkawi, hence increase the island's tourism receipts per capita in the future.
He was speaking to reporters after signing the land lease agreement with Tradewinds Corporation chief executive officer Shaharul Farez Hassan here today.
The hotel will be built on LADA's 36.7-acre land in Teluk Burau.
Khalid said the project would create over 400 new jobs.
