The next question will be how much is the fare ...

Depending on the numbers it could carry as well as estimated amount of daily passengers, I would think about 40 rm each way unless there are further taxes levied upon the operator

New development launching in Medini, Nusajaya, Iskandar Malaysia.

d'Residences at Medini

Most affordable condo starting from only SGD $1XXk, and you pay upfront cash of only SGD $10+K! Plus DIBS means developer absorbs interest till TOP, meaning no loan repayment till TOP.

SMS me at 81632525 (Lester Chia) to register or for more info.

Looks like Medini is taking off quickly!

hi,

just wondering which constituency is Medini under ? now under BN or PKR ?

I think we should be worrying more about State control rather than Constituency influence. Nothing gets changed even if the MP wants to run things his way.

Delighted to stand corrected by any learned Malaysians out there.

Yes, not much power there as one needs all 3 to run to have maximum effect, Federal, State and Constituency.

You miss out on the Sultan power.

When come to big decision, it is make known to the sultan before going into Parliament for a debate. If the Sultan do not like the bill, it will not even reach the parliament.

Iskandar is quite special as I think it is managed 50% by Federal and 50% by Johor state.

I heard that it has full backing of Sultan of Johor and he is very influential and has a big say in how things are run. This is what a malaysian told me, don't whack me !

You think the Sultan have no interest in the 2217 km sq of land to be develop as Iskandar?

He is the Johor Sultan; I doubt he let people play in his backyard without some form of .......:biggrin:

I understand there are several more new developments coming up in Medini like Iskandar Residences & Affiniti strata landed. Have to study the differences before making a choice. So Meridin is still open for booking?
Going by the surge in Ringgit &stocks( mainly banks and Iskandar related property counters) I think the naysayers may be missing the boat.

The KL Composite Index continues to be upbeat about the new Government as share prices continue to soar. All the pent up buying is happening now.

Actually soar in ringgit does not mean property will become more expensive. If buyers are discouraged due to increase in JB property price in S$ terms, developer will have to adjust ringgit price if they want to sell.

Well said! It is about doing the deal. I think the Malaysian developers are still looking to attract Singaporeans! $$$

The problem is Singaporeans make up a very small part of the pie. I hear many other foreigners like Japanese, Chinese are also coming in. If you ask around, it appears latest launches there are many going for the units. So even if prices are a bit higher like 10 to 20%, they may still have enough buyers. Malaysia is now one of the few relatively safe, undervalued places for investors to park their capital. But I doubt it will go up too much too fast . With Lim Kit Siang in the picture, I wont eb surprised if the minimum amount is raised for foreigners, like In penang. Although in Penang's case, it only led to prices rising. The Dewan Undangan Negeri is still under BN though.

Very true indeed. Many SMEs in Japan have turned away from being too insular in the past especially with their unfortunate experience of the Fukushima Tsunami. They are now looking out of their borders for the first time and this may bring them to Malaysia due to the affordable factor. Singapore is no longer the destination of choice from a value stand point.
