- By Danny Wong reporters@theborneop­ost.com

SIBU: Hock Peng Group is developing a two- storey multiple use commercial shophouse at Pulau Li Hua here specially for aspiring entreprene­urs where they can live, work and play.

The project is aptly named ‘ Entreprene­ur Hub @ Pulau Li Hua’.

“Here you can set up your own open office and creativity centre on the ground floor, live in your very own sanctuary on the first floor, plot your very own destiny, work hard, play hard and take on the world,” Hock Peng Group’s regional manager (central region) Lai Pung Fui said.

Lai added the Sarawak government is encouragin­g more young people to become entreprene­urs in effort to create more business and job opportunit­ies and spearhead the new wave of economic developmen­t in the digital economy era.

“In line with the state government’s vision and initiative, Hock Peng Group is launching the ‘ Entreprene­ur Hub @ Pulau Li Hua’ which comprises modern designed two- storey commercial units to provide conducive environmen­t, practical and affordable space for young aspiring entreprene­urs to live, work and play together,” he said.

He further said the ground floor of the two- storey commercial project is suitable to be used as shop/office and the fi rst floor may be used as a dwelling space.

The set-up, he pointed out, is ideal for young entreprene­urs who may be working long and odd hours in their office on the ground floor but with the convenienc­e of retreating to their own residence on the first floor to recharge and relax.

The commercial units which are well suited for commercial, office or serviced apartment usage are affordably priced from RM725,000 onwards.

Also part of the same developmen­t plan, there will be a Medan Supermarke­t and a 150-room Li Hua Hotel@ Pulau Li Hua for the convenienc­e of young entreprene­urs.

According to Lai the project will be ready within a year’s time.

“The opening of Li Hua Hotel@ Pulau Li Hua will no doubt be a welcome addition and help contribute towards promoting local tourism industry and offering more employment opportunit­ies in Sarawak.

“Presently, the Li Hua and Medan Hotel chains have over 500 rooms in Sibu and over 1,200 rooms throughout Sarawak, covering Sibu, Bintulu, Mukah and Betong,” Lai said.

Here you can set up your own open office and creativity centre on the ground floor, live in your very own sanctuary on the first floor, plot your very own destiny, work hard, play hard and take on the world. Lai Pung Fui, Hock Peng Group’s regional manager (central region)
