I mean DS landed over 500k RM.
This is a matter of concern for me too. Should have bought the Twin Villas at East Ledang instead of the corner terrace?
Still can buy 2nd hand terraces as we ourselves bought 2nd hand for a few units from other Singaporeans.
Another friend bought and sold too, the only issue was that the subsale had to be above RM 350k at that time, pretty sure that the only issue is that it must be above RM 500k when selling.

Thanks for the clarification. The statement made in the article was so misleading..

If this is true... It's gona be very very attractive and surely i need not travel all the way to city side just to watch a movie... i can catch all the cantonese movies... hooray... keke
Both developments to be located in Medini, that's good news for most forumers here who bought in Nusajaya. Hope this news is reliable as there were many previous reports, some stated that the Iconic Wellness project will be located in Danga Bay, while others stated that it will be in Nusajaya.

personally all i need is proper lap pools and proper gym chains. that's all the wellness i need =p
looks like medini region is hotting up with these developments in concert with legoland and hotels and malls within the vicinity.
like to be able to drive around the area for a look see beyond the maps on the websites. i guess its not accessible to the public currently?
Not forgetting the Mega Mall which will also opens next year.

"It is targeted that the RTS link will be operational by 2018. The RTS link will have a co-located (customs, immigration and quarantine) facility in Singapore and another co-located CIQ facility in Johor Bahru so that commuters need to clear immigration only once for each way of travel."
The announcement comes as Singapore's Foreign Affairs Minister, K Shanmugam, signed a written instrument which contains the implementation details of the Points of Agreement (POA) on Malayan Railway Land in Singapore approved by both governments.
Signing on behalf of the Malaysian government was Minister in the Prime Minister's Department, Nor Mohamed Yakcop.

A joint venture company, called M+S Pte Ltd, and Iskandar JV Company will be established by Thursday.
M+S will develop the four land parcels in Marina South as an integrated development and the two land parcels in Ophir-Rochor, also as an integrated development.
Iskandar JV will undertake two wellness developments in Iskandar Malaysia.
In addition, Khazanah and Temasek will jointly consider other potential developments which are commercially viable in Iskandar Malaysia of up to 500 acres of land, inclusive of the said 215 acres.
Also on schedule is the implementation of the work plan to hand over the waterworks under the 1961 Water Agreement by Singapore free of charge and as a matter of goodwill after the expiry of the agreement on 31 August 2011.
Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak and Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong expressed appreciation and satisfaction on the work done by the ministers and officials in achieving the historic breakthrough in the POA.
Both prime ministers also reiterated their commitments towards further strengthening bilateral relations.
They noted that the resolution of the POA would pave the way for the two countries to explore new areas of cooperation.

2. When stopped, don't volunteer a bribe, there was one time my friend got away when he politely challenged the offence as it was really ridiculous.
Hi Wuqi,
I am confused over the need to apply / convert to International Driving Licence.
Can we drive Malaysia Registered Car with Singapore Driving License ? If not, what will be the right way? I am not under the MM2H or migrating to MY.
Thanks,

Hi,
after reading the thread to 200plus, I have several days of sleepless nights..
I begin to dream what my life will be if I live in HH.. I pick up the phone last Friday to make an appointment to see HH. I guess only buying a house there will ease my sleepless problem.. However this morning just before I set off to JB, the sales person in HH said she have to go for urgent leaves.. Will go down to HH probably next week..
