Electronics City, Kochi

A major electronics group named Amer Asia Ventures Corporation headed by Michael Chan from Taiwan came to Kerala on 17^th December for studying the feasibility of setting up a Multi billion venture “Electronics City” in Kochi. The Group has asked for 2000 acres of land within 25 to 35 km diameter of the International Airport.

The Taiwan group of 7 headed by M. Chang held primary talks with the Industrial Secretary T. Balakrishnan, IT Secretary Dr. Ajaykumar, Ernakulam District Collector Mr. A.P.M Mohammed Hanish, along with KSEB, Pollution Control Board and Inforpark Officials.

The estimated cost of the project is Rs.3000 crores.

The group is planning to build the LARGEST ELECTRONICS CITY IN INDIA having hardware industries, including semi-conductor and allied industries. The group visited various places in Kochi and has shown keen interest in some of the places, but the officials have not yet disclosed about the locations.

The team will hold discussions with the government officials in Thiruvananthapuram and New Delhi later. The group was so ardent that they needed the endeavor to come up in Kochi itself. With the Taiwan group showing such a curiosity, the key stumbling block for the Government is to arrange such a mammoth area. But the positive approach by the Thai group is boosting factor for the Government.

Once the discussion are held and given a nod to go ahead, the Taiwan group Amer Asia is ready to start the work. For Kerala it will be another mega project through Kochi, like the TECOM’s Smart City, which is going to change the face of IT industry in Kerala.

NOTE: At present the largest “Electronics City” is in the IT capital of India – BENGALOORU (Bangalore) in an area of around 332 acres. This grandiose area is thus pertinently called as the Outsourcing capital of the world. Now Kochi is expected to join the league of the IT city of Bengalooru!!
