Overall: I have some neutrality concerns here, as the article is about a for-profit entity, and is almost entirely positive in tone. It is also a little confusing what the thing is -- is it simply a street where a lot of businesses are set up? Is it an area with special economic/tax privileges? Is it owned by one person? Et cetera. Ping me when you respond, and I'll take another look. jp×g 02:17, 5 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Comment –@ Cerevisae Is the neutrality concern here resolved? @JPxG seem to have added the green tick, which listed this nomination at the approved page. Long story short, is this nomination approved? – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 14:34, 17 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@jp, @Kavyansh.Singh, I think the article is neutral. I not only include presence of high tech companies here, I also included the companies that tried to close their factories inside the economic zone such as Western Digital, Sanmina corporation, and also the 1st silicon of making losses over the years. I added reasons regarding ineffcient infrastructure and lack of human capital in the paragraph regarding Sanmina corporation closing its factories. This is an economic zone with tax priviledges to encourage high tech companies investments. I had clarify these inside the 'infrastructure and incentives' section. As you can see from the infobox, it is owned by the Sarawak government.Cerevisae (talk) 00:51, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Will wait to see what the original reviewer thinks. – Kavyansh.Singh (talk) 08:03, 18 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, I meant that to be a "?" and not a "y". I will look at this some more later (please ping me if I forget). jp×g 09:28, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
