SEREMBAN: Matrix Concepts Holdings Bhd, which is the master developer of Bandar Sri Sendayan, Negri Sembilan, will partner Taiwan’s Changhua Christian Hospital group to build a RM200 million hospital in the township.
Sources said this was the first hospital for the 2,118ha township.
The hospital is to cater for the current population of more than 30,000 residents with a future target of more than 120,000 by 2022.
“The 400-bed hospital is part of the long-term development of Bandar Sri Sendayan, which is fast rising playing host to residential, commercial, industrial, an international school and the Royal Malaysian Air Force new training and academia centre,” the sources told NST Business.
Matrix founder and group managing director Datuk Lee Tian Hock and Changhua Christian Hospital (Taiwan) superintendent Dr Kuo Shou Jue are set to ink their partnership agreement, here, on Wednesday.
Changhua Christian Hospital, established in 1896 in central Taiwan, offers more than 3,200 beds and the full range of specialty departments with specialists in medicine, nursing, medical technology and management.
Matrix Concepts launched its boutique business hotel d’Sora last week to cater to the burgeoning number of business groups, professionals and leisure visitors who are making a stopover at the township, which is jointly undertaken with Negri Sembilan Menteri Besar Inc.
As at December 31 last year, the company had RM2.1 billion worth ongoing projects in Negri Sembilan and Johor, as well as in Melbourne, Australia.
Matrix Concepts’ net profit in the third quarter ended December 31 last year jumped 36.9 per cent to RM50.4 million from RM36.8 million a year ago. Group revenue rose to RM198 million from RM141.5 million.
