Hi All, I am new to this forum. I also invested a unit in Matex, however due to the recent increase in psf and decrease in floor area I decided to cancel the booking. After reading through this forum I realise some of you are also the victim of unethical and unprofessional business practice. Do anyone of you cancel the booking with NSG like me and encounter problem to get them to refund you the S$5000 deposit. Looking forward to all your advise.

Yes it is matex. Almost the same as what was promised.
I got called up for agent. they now starting to sell, at jacked up price.
i dunno if the early bird who buy get what was promised at their earlier price, the agent wont elaborate, just say the early bird discount dont apply, instead special discount for those early bird due to floor plan changes....

Forgot to add, starting PSF 1k. likely abt 1300-1400 for the top floor with premium view. Those early that didnt cancel really got a good deal.
This condo selling point is that is the mall with transport hub. MRT nowadays plan is questionable since najib says project cancel...... should have buses stopping here. RTS wont stop here, since already confirm in iskandar. Thompson line MRT stop in Tg Puteri

Onyx To Launch First Amari Hotel In Malaysia
Introducing Amari Johor Bahru
ONYX HOSPITALITY GROUP
Thailand-based, ONYX Hospitality Group has been appointed to operate a 207-room property in the Malaysian town of Johor Bahru. Amari Johor Bahru is owned by Exquisite Mode Sdn Bhd (a subsidiary of United Malayan Land Bhd) and will be managed by ONYX under their upscale Amari brand. The property will offer a selection of Amari's signature features including an Asian Food Gallery, Breeze Spa and Idea (meeting) Rooms. The property is scheduled to open in 2015 and is part of the Suasana Iskandar Malaysia development, which also offers serviced apartments for sale and a retail podium. The development is within a 5-minute walk of the upcoming JB Sentral Mass Rapid Transit System (MRT) which will link Johor Bahru and Singapore.
Located in southern Malaysia, Johor Bahru is becoming a popular weekend escape for families and leisure travellers. Singapore is currently Johor's top source of international arrivals, followed by Indonesia, China, Hong Kong, Macau, the Philippines and India. Johor's Department of Tourism is aiming for 24.2 million arrivals in 2013, having recorded 12.6 million as of July. The state of Johor offers a number of popular attractions, including Johor Premium Outlets, Legoland Malaysia, Danga World theme park and the Angry Birds Activity Park.
ONYX President and Chief Executive Officer, Peter Henley, said: "We are very excited to be in a position to announce our second hotel development in Malaysia, so soon after the first. As a Thai company, having a presence in one of our closest neighbouring countries has always been a priority for us. We are excited to be joining forces with Exquisite Mode Sdn Bhd. and bringing the first Amari to Malaysia with Amari Johor Bahru. Amari has become a household name in Thailand and we look forward to building that level of brand recognition in Malaysia."
UMLand GCEO, Mr. Charlie Chia Lui Meng said: "We are honoured to have ONYX Hospitality Group on board to manage and operate Amari Johor Bahru. With its solid reputation and global marketing network, we strongly believe that the collaboration with ONYX will be a win-win for all parties. The development's prime location in the heart of the city, combined with the retail component, is hoped to rejuvenate and revitalise Johor Bahru, preparing the city for economic growth, whilst also offering an attractive and conducive living environment for locals and expatriates."
ONYX announced their first property in Malaysia earlier this year for select service brand OZO. OZO Penang is scheduled to welcome its first guests in 2016. There are currently six OZO properties under development in Malaysia, Thailand and Sri Lanka.

UMLand launches Suasana, Iskandar Malaysia with GDV of RM452m
JOHOR BAHARU: United Malaya Land Berhad (UMLand) is launching a new commercial project, the Suasana, Iskandar Malaysia, here.
With a gross development value (GDV) of RM452mil, the project in the heart of the city centre, will feature a hotel and service residences with retail components.
The Suasana, Iskandar Malaysia is part of a wider intiative to rejuvenate and revitalise the Johor Baharu City Centre under the Johor Baharu (JB) Transformation Programme.
UMLand group chief executive officer Charlie Chia said the four and a half star hotel under the brand name, Amari Johor Baharu, will have 200 rooms, while there will be 335 units of the service residences.
It will also be the first Amari hotel in the country.
"Construction of all components of Suasana Iskandar Malaysia, will be completed simultaneously by the end of 2015," he told reporters after the launch of the project by state Housing and Local Government Exco, Datuk Abdul Latif Bandi here, today.
Also attending the ceremony were UMLand chairman Tun Musa Hitam and Pulai's member of parliament, Datuk Nur Jazlan Mohamed.
Chia expressed confidence over the success of Suasana, Iskandar Malaysia, as it is located on Jalan Trus, within Johor Baharu's tourist belt and walking distance to the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) complex.
Meanwhile, Jalan Trus in the Johor Baharu Central Business District, is also a prime area earmarked for transformation under the programme.
The RM1.8bil JB Transformation Programme was announced by the Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak two years ago.
According to Chia, the state government, the Johor Baharu City Council, the Economic Planning Unit of the Prime Minister's Department and the Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA), have been providing incentives and support to those interested in reviving abandoned buildings and projects under the programme.
"With all the platforms provided, UMLand is taking a step forward in supporting the state government by being part of the Johor Baharu transformation process, and developing the Suasana Project," he said in his speech.
UMLand has also signed an agreement with Onyx Hospitality Group for the management of the Amari Johor Baharu Hotel management and a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Samsung C&T Sdn Bhd for joint construction works.
On UMLand's upcoming projects in Iskandar Malaysia, Chia said, the company is set to grow its niche development in Puteri Harbour with the proposed mixed development in parcel CS3.
The new development in Puteri Harbour follows the success of its earlier project, Somerset Puteri Harbour. It is also banking on the success of its Medini Lakeside project.
Chia revealed that UMLand is in the midst of planning the launch of a new township project in Felda Cahaya Baru, Masai, by the middle of next year.
The 133.54 hectares (330 acres) township project he added, will comprise mainly affordable houses, tagged at RM150,000. - Bernama

But it is a lot expensive than when they are selling at 500~700 psf in the earlier phase in 2012.
that time, RTS is a big ?. now much of the price gain should be due to RTS. those interested can check with developer on subsales. the last time i called, mbland has not released these bumi units and they have a few subsales on hand. they will provide reference but price nego is btw you and owner. quoted me 9xx psf ..cheaper than current market price but almost double what they paid for
