Seems like a very optimistic projection.
Hopefully it will materialise.
With cross border links under some strain and with a slowing economic growth in Singapore with lower returns in Singapore rentals.
Iskandar success is still uncertain.
There's a lot of big mega projects in Malaysia which has a lot of promise which fall flat.
I hope that you are right but I would be more circumspect. If it turns out well then good else just take it as a weekend getaway.
I have learnt not to have high hopes for Malaysia government led project execution
Just my point of view.
You seriously think property prices in spore will crash? With all the money the govt is pumping into infrastructures ? These investments are to pave the way for continued growth of at least 3 to 4 % growth annually. The govt cannot allow population to stagnate. To sustain the growth one of the strategy is allowing more transient workers to work in spore but stay elsewhere. Why do you think they are building the HSR. They are projecting up to 400000 people to use the HSR daily. Many of these transcient workers drawing a high sgd salary will eventually choose to stay at johore obviously. The closer to spore and hsr the better. Demand will drive prices of properties near to spore high.
Yes there are some who think relationship between govt not so good now. Problems can be resolved amicably. Spore has no hinterland. How to continue growing without land and human resources.
The Malaysian govt knows that so sometimes they get a bit high handed in their dealings with spore govt.
It is also in the interest of umno that iskandar succeed. They got no choice. The other 2 states that has the potential are Penang and Selangor. Both are under opposition.
It's a no brainer iskandar will succeed whether under umno or pkr.
There is no looking back now.
I don't know if its viable to stay in KL but work in Spore next time
If huge difference in salary why not? If they can endure paying for the ride and sitting in the train for 2 hours. In many countries people think nothing of commuting 2 hrs to 3 hrs to work every day.
https://sg.yahoo.com/news/malaysia-singapore-connected-90-minute-070047409.htmlYou need to consider that this will be 40 billion ringitt project with high operating costs.
I can see ticket will not be cheaper than a budget airline ticket from SG to KL.

I suppose the folks who would consider LF would be seeking the tranquility that they can find there.
I have seen other developments before but I have not yet experience the same quality of feel.
Not from Horizon Hills or East Ledang. They are nice neighbourhoods nonetheless, just different.
More good news coming your way. Signing ceremony for coastal highway extension this month end. This is where the 3rd gate will be located and cut travelling time from LF to both checkpoints even shorter. Seamless travel to both woodlands and tuas checkpoint once it opens in about 2 to 3 years time.
Hi can you enlighten where is the Gate 3 going to be located? Btw 1 and 2, beside 1 or beside 2 etc
To put it in to graphic context. Look out for the third red dot at the bottom of the map.

ThANKS. It does seem to be good news. I really wonder where will the High Speed station in Nusajaya be.. I have seen thru the entire map of Gerbang Nusajaya and realise the only big tract of land parcel available and nearest to Custom Complex are the forested area just to the LEFT of the custom.
