Refurbished Johor Zoo set to reopen by year-end

JOHOR BARU: The 95-year-old Johor Zoo will have better facilities when it reopens by the end of the year after extensive upgrading work.

State housing and local government committee chairman Datuk Mohd Jafni Md Shukor said the long and tedious documentation process had been completed and they were in the final stages of appointing a contractor.“It will include upgrading the visitor walkway, entrance arch, adding an outdoor parking area and also moving the ticketing system to online.

Mohd Jafni was also previously quoted as saying that the state government allocated almost RM1mil annually for the zoo’s maintenance, workers’ salary, food for the animals and other costs. In February, Sultan Ibrahim said in a Facebook post that the zoo needed to be made into one of the new tourist locations in the state to attract visitors from home and abroad.
