00:00We expect it to be officially opened to the public on 31 August this year.
00:19So I am confident and believe that the Zoo Johor is something to be anticipated,
00:28not only by the people of Johor, but by the Malaysians as a whole.
00:33I would also like to take this opportunity to pay my deepest condolences to the founder of the Johor Sultanate,
00:39His Excellency Tengku Mahkota Ismail,
00:42on the occasion of the official opening of the Zoo, God willing, on 28 August.
00:50I was told that the area of the land is 11.7 acres,
00:59and involves more than 275 animals.
01:06Among them, we have tigers, eagles, elephants,
01:10seals, birds, crocodiles, and many more.
01:17So I am very satisfied with what has been done by my colleagues today,
01:24who have managed to make an effort to promote the Zoo Johor well.
01:29I would also like to announce that in the first month we open this Zoo on 31 August,
01:40a 50% discount will be given to adults and children for free.
01:51The price has been approved by the government.
01:56For adults, it is RM10, and for children, RM5.
02:03That is for the locals.
02:06And for foreigners, the charge rate is RM30.
