The southern economic hub lured three new foreign investment projects worth US$115 million in January and February, it said, citing complex developments of the COVID-19 pandemic around the world as the reason.
Up to 99.7% of the new capital was channelled into real estate, with 29.6% from Singapore and 70.1% from the Netherlands.
