Johor Property News: Transport Hub in Forest City?
What do I think of JB property market? (Iskandar)
I just answered this question a few days ago during the Annual Property Conference 2024 in which I was a speaker and also a chairperson. Here’s the earlier link of the event.

Yes, our new Yang di-Pertuan Agong ke-17 is the Sultan of Johor Sultan Ibrahim.

Article in nst.com.my Fang Fang, Country Garden’s general manager of brand, sales, and marketing for Malaysia and Singapore said that LRT West Line and the KL-Singapore HSR are two of the projects, with plans to establish stations in Forest City.
She said, “We firmly believe that Forest City will host stations for both the LRT and the KL-SG HSR rail lines. There could be a spur line, given the short distance to Singapore.

When it comes to property investment, reading and knowing is needed
Whenever someone asked me how to start their property investment journey, I always asked if they have been reading property news, economy news, business news and kopiandproperty.com for the past 6 months. If their answer is no, I would advise them to understand more prior to jumping in because buying a property will be the single biggest purchase we will ever do in our life. Why are we taking it so lightly? Asking someone and if that someone says to go ahead, we go ahead?
Just need to also note that when we read a lot more, then we will realise that some news are already happening and some news are just potential happenings. Happy understanding.
