PETALING JAYA: The business community has been alerted to look out for investment opportunities in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) routes as total investments led by China are estimated to rise four to five-fold from an initial US$1 trillion, chairman of the Star Media Group (SMG) Datuk Fu Ah Kiow said yesterday in his welcome address at the Malaysia-China Outlook Forum hosted by SMG.

“China’s vast market has provided tremendous opportunities in trade, investment and business. Its deepening economic reforms and further opening up, coupled with its BRI programmes and globalisation policy, have opened up many investment opportunities and spurred the emergence of new trading zones, particularly along the BRI routes.
