australia we have told our clients and potential clients that worker retention is and will continue to be a challenge — especially with the proximity of Singapore , which offers higher salaries and lower taxes ,” Kimber explained . “ This is also a challenge with the impending Refinery and Petrochemicals Integrated Development ( RAPID ) project in Johor . We need to address this by paying realistic labor rates , offering incentive schemes for project completion , etc .”
Despite this , M + W has some exciting projects happening in Malaysia , including the design of one of the largest data centre projects in Asia , a biotech project in Johor , and the design and build of First Solar ’ s new pilot project , the Kulim High Tech Park .
