Hi Cathy, It will go down but this time, not downhill. This time IMHO I believe there is real holding power. It will bounce up back fast, even faster than what we saw in 2009. The rich people are really coming esp Chinese & Indian. I stay in the east and I noticed more and more bmw's than...

funny I was actually thinking today where has AP & Cathy gone? :)

Hi Serenity, Thanks for the tip. In fact I had a good time browsing and picking up stuff today. Very good prices. Thought I would just go kepo kepo and ended up buying RM100 worth of stuff. I was impressed that the service was quite nice as they had many workers. Hope the good service persists...

Before flames can happen from ultras, I will clarify that this is the big picture trend. When you get to the details of course there are many reasons for people to move to Iskandar. Myself included. This will be due to quality of life, fresh air, space, etc. In fact I would love to stay in...

Hi lastresort, looks like you are ready to do postgraduate :) Good thought processes. Maybe you can make some money as an investment analyst/banker. My take is Temasek needs to invest in Medini. That Najib came along and executed the deal only catalyses it (as signing was long ago)...

Thanks for this horizonhills. Looks like IRDA has been having events in JB to reach out to investors, via its Facebook page. Next one, see you guys there then. Got to start somewhere...

Hi friends , I have been crossing the last few weekends in search of food & exploration further up north. Restoran Pekin in Sutera Mall is a favourite for good cooking skills. Pappa Rich in Taman Sutera for good nostalgic kopitiam food and the Nasi Lemak in Oldtown White Coffee in Jusco is...

Hi wuqi, I understand your blog is a work-in-progress thus not ready to 'open' yet. Some quick feedback. . 1/ You could put in Google ads for cost-recovery...You have expended so much personal resources for the benefit of others, you should make some cost-recovery. 2/ I like the Q&A format...

Brilliant! All-in-one-spot-info-depository incl your wisdom of the nooks and crannies of Iskandar. Hope you will keep it as commercial-free as possible to remain objective and unbiased. But do come back here to engage in Q&A and the conversations. Your opinion always valuable. Do share the url...

Hi Fc3s1, The alphabet soup of terrace houses are quite diverse in Iskandar. Got to make sure comparing right things... HILLS Clusters mentioned of 928k are probably Terrace corner lots? (arsenal pls correct me if I am wrong) Your question pertains to "intermediate cluster terrace at HH...

Wuqi, Very right. Do homework, know locals or wait & learn from experience until can self-consider to be local enough to venture into agriculture. I think running a non-agri business is less risky. Then again I am biased as I hate snakes :) You seem almost local by now with your vast reservoir...

Interesting reading about the dream to own a collective farm. It can be a reality some day. Just not yet....the reality is we know forumers not ready to meet up yet . Long ago my father owned a plot of land with durian trees. As teenagers from the city, we shiok like hell take pickup on some...

This is good stuff. Inspiring. Some people buy land in Indonesia to plant food to ensure food supply. I think you are one up. Just across the border in your own backyard. You have also the raw ingredients to make vodka & toddy :)

No worries .... I believe is the timing. It is too early in the Iskandar stage. People are still busy trying to settle in and fixing daily routines, some in the investment decision stages, and some just getting used to JB. Is thus very understandable many not yet willing to socialise beyond the...

Thanks for this, Investor & all. Lets see if we can advance the above one more practical step.. A meeting is needed first in order to be able to know each other and coordinate efforts and funnelling of voicing opinions. We must have a condition to be no more than only three serious matters (eg...

Not sure they thought it through.. Will it be effective? Take example, the China passport control. Right there you can rate the immigration officer's performance on a scale of four. But no one ever rates the officer as "terrible" when he or she holds your passport in hand before you enter...

Thanks euphony. Banking circles start stirring about Iskandar- Senibong, HH, EL etc.. Typical, wait wait wait until coast is clearer (Tg Pagar handover) then start to sniff. Me not complaining, already invested. The tide is coming.... :)

From today's Business Times Singapore editorial... Since the Tanjung Pagar KTM handover, almost everyday got some good news about Singapore being closer to Iskandar... Editorial Published July 5, 2011 Prospects for win-win deals with Malaysia WITH the chapter on the railway land deal...

anyone been to Senibong cove? Is it freehold? any idea if prices like EL/HH?

Hi LeMans, how has it been since the incident? Hope all is well... Do you know how much psft is Crescent going for?
