But do u know tanah laut command a premium as compare to tanah darat? Even in MY too
Not sure abt e Malay terms. I'm definitely against fresh reclaimed land.
It means reclaimed land fm sea (tanah laut) command a premium than normal land (tanah darat).
They can complete the township by 2017 if they want to. whether it is safe or not is another issue.
the last time I drove by, they were still dumping sand into the straits. from the little knowledge I have about land reclamation, if they are gonna build so soon after pouring sand in, I would stay away from this project. Reason: shock waves from Indonesian earthquakes. for those interested in this subject, go read up on the construction of Kansai Airport and the Kobe earthquake.
Just for reference: In SG, construction on reclaimed land starts only after AT LEAST 10 years.

i drive past the danga bay area frequently and i still see sand barges and piles of sand still there? means the reclamation work is still in progress?

I went to the Danga Bay Area to eat at a Chinese restaurant recently.. Food was good. I saw a group of Chinese tourists going into the restaurant .. Probably after viewing/buying units in country garden's project. After lunch, curiosity kills the cat, I decided to walk to take a look. As I walk, I was surprised that I could not even see one Singapore car there. There is a car park in front of the restaurant and adjacent to the showroom. At the door step of the showroom, there is a big poster of a Chinese actress.. Giving you an impression that actresses/actors may stay there. Once I entered, it was like a small musical carnival.. Agents came to me like trying to sell credit cards.. Didn't feel good about the whole 'atmosphere'. Overdone its marketing.. Since, some agents mentioned that prc already bought thousands of units there... I m not sure how Malaysians n Singaporeans going to stay together with them.. Recently, there was a report on a prc drying her salted fish at her hdb at Chua choo Kang.. And the smell stinks the whole block.. I didn't mean to talk down this project.. When so many sporeans complaint about them.. I can't help but to think that there are some truth in their complaint..
I'm okay with Chinese buying but not with the soil the project is sitting on. Likely to be ghost town, so no worries about different culture.
I was attracted mainly by the project’s unique of a man made beach
I was attracted mainly by the project’s unique of a man made beach(which I can wet my feet or sit at the beach when I am bored and it is not found anywhere in JB yet) and a future LRT within walking distance. In my opinion a project of this magnitude(10k units) and built by a reputable developer, it will be nice for a weekend home for me.Will this developer built them without having enough technical know how, in this case is a reclaim land and risk of tarnish its own reputation?

haha we share the same thots Country Gardens is a top 10 developer in China and a Forbes Asia fav 30 company. Will they risk their reputation especially when many buyers are Chinese ? Are they not afraid their fellow Chinese will tell on them back in China ?

Why should they worry; they are not living there.
Reputation? In a bull run; people buy anything from anyone. No one really care about the name....

I work in a MNC. For MNC,reputation is very important. May be CG really use advance technology in this project. I remembered I watched National Geographic, the builder can pour in the cement directly to the sea bed during construction,thus have a solid foundation faster.
