It is estimated to yield a gross development value (GDV) of RM1.2 billion and will take eight to 10 years to complete. Once completed, the township will be a new attraction in Kelantan.

Lagenda Tunjong Chief Executive Officer Datuk Aminuddin Abdul Manaf said they have secured a women and children specialised hospital and are currently in talks with an international hotel brand to join the development.

In a related matter, Malvest Group is confident that the soon-to-be-finished East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) Project which is an essential catalyst for Kelantan's future development, particularly when the Tunjong ECRL station is completed, would make Bandar Baru Tunjong the primary business activity hub in Kelantan.

Malvest Group Managing Director Tan Kian Boon also said the collaboration with Lagenda Tunjong Sdn Bhd is timely.
