The park is home to 22 bird's nest enterprises, and the overall import value of bird's nest products has reached 709 million yuan (97.6 million U.S. dollars). Furthermore, the total industrial output value of the bird's nest industry has achieved 316 million yuan (43.5 million U.S. dollars).
Located on Malaysia's east coast, the Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park is expediting the construction of ports, terminals, factories, and service areas. These efforts aim to establish industrial clusters with a focus on steel, tires, glass, and aluminum products.
The Malaysia-China Kuantan Industrial Park has witnessed the signing of 13 projects, with a total investment of more than 44 billion yuan and a total industrial output value of more than 60 billion yuan.

The plant is a leading steel producer in Southeast Asia with an annual output capacity of 3.5 million tons.
