The distance from Gerbang Nusajaya, Leisure Farm and Sunway Iskadnar to the Checkpoint will be much nearer compared to Forest City. Forest City residents will still have to U Turn to the Second Link CIQ before entering/exiting Malaysia. The attractiveness of Forest City is the waterfront...

Fair enough. I think my point has been made. There are existing HSR lines that can have very frequent services as shown on my post. So now, the key question is the expected ridership numbers. I fully agree that the frequencies will mostly depend on the actual demand, which is turn will depend...

Another question mark is country garden massive reclamation project along the second link. Although is a long term project, I am afraid the project will be designed with high densities and this could impact on the supply and demand balance for Nusajaya.

Let's make a simple comparison... Danga Bay Country Garden: 55 acres with 10,000 residential units. Density 181 Units per acre Sunway Iskandar: 1,800 acres for 30,000 residential units. Density 16 units per acre. Sunway Iskandar to have 40% green footprint on their project or 720 acres out of...

Traffic on the Beijing - Tianjin high-speed line has grown at an annual rate of 20% since it opened in 2008, according to MOR, and the line has transported 88 million passengers so far. On busy days, trains run at five-minute headways...

So in conclusion, we have amazing frequencies and incredible train capacities... A truly catalyst for Nusajaya!

We now live on the Internet area... Anything can be checked in a few minutes. It's best you make your own research before making such statements. I have enclosed the schedules for the Beiging- Shangai HSR for your reference...

The key thing now is to know where the HSR station will be located in Singapore (West Tuas, Jurong East or City Centre).The malaysians have already decided that it's going to be in Bandar Malaysia, the former Military Air Base. Malpaso, if you take as an example the trainsets for the circle...

Ok, let met share a bit of info then.. It has been widely reported that the authorities are looking into the Taiwan HSR as a model for the SIN-KL High speed rail, given the same distance (340 km) and similar catchment population. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_High_Speed_Rail) The...

Malpaso, you may want to read more about the HSR project on the internet. There is a lot of information. I have become almost an expert to on High Speed Rail and I can assure you that the plans are very different from your thoughts. The only thing certain about your post is that the high...

Let's not forget about the High Speed Rail Station in Nusajaya to be completed by 2020. I agree that for the next few years the congestion at customs may be a problem, but come 2020, the HSR will make a daily commute as feasible as stating in Woodlands, Jurong East or Tampines. We can expect to...

Re: The Epic :) Valdez, my interpretation is different from yours. Foreigners can still buy directly from developers (based on existing quotas) and can only buy resale properties form foreigners. So basically, for existing foreign owners in Iskandar Malaysia, they can either sell to...

But FHBH12, The are no immigration stamp fees between singapore and malaysia. The opening of the HSR has been announced by the Najib and LSL by 2020 (I agreed it can be delayed) Kindly note that the station will not be in JB, but nusajaya. Please refer to the below hyperlink for park n ride...

Hi wolverine, Yup, nusa central and nusa idaman should be able to reach in 10 minutes to the HSR station.

The offical date for HSR is 2020, but I agree with shctaw that these projects are usually delayed.

FHBH12,thank for your comments. I am a very factual guy.. So I would not dare to make such a statement without hundreds of hours of previous research on other high speed rail systems. What the malaysian authorities have been doing is to study high sped Rail systems under operation (taiwan...

Naturebest, you are completely right... The jam can only get worse in the coming years. But the real catalyst in Nusajaya will be the High speed Rail station from the Singapore - KL link. It has already been disclosed that this line will have a station in Nusajaya (my speculation is in Gerbang...

Puteri harbour is not built on reclaimed land...some earthworks were done to build the public and private marinas..

Another waterfront project to look out for will be the Eco Marina and Blue Lagoon at Sunway Iskandar. I believe there will be more waterfront properties at Gerbang Nusajaya, facing the international recognised mangroves of Sungai Pulai. So plenty of opportunities ahead of us.

Ok, d'Estuary is the largest of all landed precincts, and it's right on top of the above picture. Then, we have Emerald bay, just below D'estuary,in yellow and finally residential south, on the bottom left side of the photo, just facing the mangroves. Kota iskandar can be easily identified as...
