Hulu Terengganu:Terengganu Terengganu Incorporated Sdn Bhd (Trg Inc) is actively seeking a strategic partner to redevelop the water theme park on Pulau Poh, Tasik Kenyir, located in Hulu Terengganu. The group's president and CEO, Datuk Burhanuddin Hilmi Mohamed @ Harun, emphasized the importance of expanding the theme park to attract more tourists and diversify tourism activities in the area.

He expressed optimism about reviving the Tasik Kenyir theme park within six months, noting that the redevelopment could serve as a significant tourist attraction. The project is anticipated to require an investment of approximately RM3 million, with several interested parties currently assessing the opportunity.
The Kenyir Water Park, which was constructed for RM7.5 million and inaugurated on May 31, 2015, was closed in 2017 due to maintenance issues. Meanwhile, the ESG Affairs 2026 event, attended by 200 participants, was aimed at clarifying economic priorities and promoting understanding of Terengganu's economic strengths and opportunities for diversification.
The programme targeted groups such as government and development agencies, business leaders, industry practitioners, investors, and community organizations. Burhanuddin Hilmi stated that ESG Affairs 2026 is designed around four interconnected forums, focusing on the state's economic ecosystem, industrial competitiveness, social development, and investment readiness. The event is intended to offer participants practical ideas for business and social investment initiatives and foster collaboration between government, industry, and community stakeholders.
