Apa nak jadi? Apa nak jadi? Sampai sekarang tak siap lagi!

What is going on with Malaysia's latest CIQ? Where is the (temporary) access road to the causeway? Or people have forgotten about JB, since the focus now is on Nusajaya.


My beutiful city of Johor Bahru. I love you, man!

Meanwhile, the current CIQ is degrading rapidly, causing a shame to Malaysia, from visitors point of view. No maintainance, no simple fixing, because they are moving to ultra-modern CIQ soon (this has been said since last year, I guess). When foreigners come from Singapore, yes, they will make believe that they are entering 3rd WORLD country! No doubt!

Apartments in the middle of the city?

Why not someone with money build apartments (studio, single or double bedroom) in the middle of the city of Johor Bahru? Personally I think it's good, since we have many (too many probably) Johoreans working at Singapore, and they are crossing the causeway every morning (and come back late at night). And they are probably single too that need only small place to live! It's good for the city, since apartments complexes create a steam of people 24hrs/day, makes our city more lively. Make it semi-exclusive, so young executives can own them too.

New York city has it, SF has it, LA has it. Why can't JB? In-front of KOMTAR may be?

Why can't they leave Lido beach alone!

Wow! Another multi-billion project for Johor Bahru! Remember JB Waterfront city? Now Lido Boulevard! Why can't they just improve the scenic view of Lido Beach, without destroying the view and environment ?(see what has happen to Lot 1 (ie. Waterfront City)

I hate this! Really...

Go South!

This?

Or this?
I think Pak Lah likes the second, while his SIL likes the first one!

Apa ada pada nama?

Apa ada pada nama? It turns out to be everything, for Wilayah Perbangunan Iskandar (Iskandar development region), or now being called Iskandar Malaysia. Here is snapshot from wiki:
Iskandar Malaysia From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from South Johor Economic Region)

Iskandar Malaysia, formerly known as Iskandar Development Region (IDR) and South Johor Economic Region (SJER) is the new main southern development corridor in Johor, Malaysia.

May be next time when Pak Lah (if he still survive as Malaysia's PM) come down to Johor again, then the people at IRDA will need to re-think again for another name. And then spent some Ringgit to re-launch the brand!

Anyway, good luck for "Iskandar ... whatever"!
