Mubadala Development, a strategic investment company owned by the Abu Dhabi Government, says it is planning to invest billions of dollars in property and energy projects in Malaysia.
The company signed two "collaboration agreements" with 1Malaysia Development Berhad, a company owned by the Malaysian government. Mubadala Industry, a division of Mubadala Development, was assessing an investment of up to US$7 billion (Dh25.71bn) in an aluminium project in the Sarawak Corridor of Renewable Energy in eastern Malaysia.
Mubadala Real Estate and Hospitality was also looking at jointly developing projects in the Kuala Lumpur International Financial District. Construction on a 34-hectare site is expected to begin by the middle of next year, after the completion of a master plan. The district aims to draw in top financial institutions and investment companies. Najib Razak, the Malaysian prime minister, said the project would cost about $8.4bn.
Khaldoon al Mubarak, the chief executive of Mubadala, said the "investment is a long-term endorsement of that view, and the Abu Dhabi Government shares our confidence in 1Malaysia Development Berhad as an ideal partner for our projects in Malaysia".
Mubadala has signed agreements in the past to invest in a Malaysian city project called Nusajaya. That development is 45 minutes from Singapore's Central Business District. The new city will spread over 642 hectares and include nine zones dedicated to such uses as trade and commerce, leisure, health care, luxury living, shopping and education.

Mia Man’s tips for fermentation
- Start with a simple recipe such as yogurt or sauerkraut
- Keep your hands and kitchen tools clean. Sanitize knives, cutting boards, tongs and storage jars with boiling water before you start.
- Mold is bad: the colour pink is a sign of mold. If yogurt turns pink as it ferments, you need to discard it and start again. For kraut, if you remove the top leaves and see any sign of mold, you should discard the batch.
- Always use clean, closed, airtight lids and containers such as mason jars when fermenting yogurt and kraut. Keep the lid closed to prevent insects and contaminants from getting in.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
