I m hoping same future for Gwadar as well...:china::pakistan:

I heard Gwadar Port already Operational a couple month ago.
Congratulations for you, my friend :pakistan::china: @PaklovesTurkiye
What I Love from CPEC is Karakoram Highway, a modern wonder of the world. :smitten:

Gwadar Port in Pakistan, and Melaka Gateway in Malaysia, would become part of Pearl of string for Maritime Silk Route (One Belt One Road Project)

Looks great, but I wonder how the business can be generated. Malaysia manufacturing is since 24 months in free fall.

The Harbour would Operational in 2019.
After the Harbour Operational, many Cargo and Tanker Ships from and to China, who cross Malacca Strait will Visit Melaka Gateway Harbour. That's will Generate Income.

With Good Infrastructure (Modern Huge Harbour) and Strategic location of Melaka Gateway Project, many Investors from all across Asia would Invest in this city (for Indonesian, Malaysian, Singapore market).

With Good facility for Residents, then many people would move in to this City, when the Harbour already Operational.

Called Forest City, the $100 billion metropolis will be able to accommodate 700,000 people.


On four man-made Malaysian islands, Chinese developer Country Garden is building a huge new city. In one of the ads, the company bills it as "a dream paradise for all mankind."

Called Forest City, the $100 billion metropolis will be able to accommodate 700,000 people. That's about 20,000 more than the current population of Washington, DC — and it will have a density greater than Manhattan.

A new video taken by a drone offers a look at Forest City's construction, which began in early 2016:



As you can see, a few apartment buildings and park spaces have already sprouted up, and some other towers are in progress. When Forest City is complete by 2040, it will have office buildings, parks, a transit network, hotels, restaurants, shops, schools, and 250,000 housing units.

While the mega-development sounds promising, several experts worry it could becomea ghost city, failing to attract the residents it needs to become a thriving metropolis. Since the 1970s, Chinese developers have built some-500 ghost cities in China. Forest City is expected to be the largest overseas project by a Chinese developer.

In April, nearly 60 home buyers , 70% of which are Chinese, cancelled their leases in Forest City, reportedly due to China's increasing efforts to curb money from leaving the country.

As Business Insider previously reported, the supply of Forest City housing is outpacing demand. In 2016, Country Garden sold just 15,000 of the 250,000 Forest City residential units, totaling about $2.6 billion in sales, according to Yu Runze, the company’s chief strategy officer.

There aren't many people walking around in the above video, but then again, Forest City is largely still under construction.

That's for linking up their East and West coast. It's a different project from the KL-SG HSR.

It's a bubble. The entire Iskandar region has only 1.8 million people yet they are reclaiming land for a new island to accommodate 700K people. Where do you get the population from? Why are they reclaiming land where there's so many empty plots of land in Johor? It's just banking on proximity to Singapore to lure in the middle-class Chinese investors who want their children to work or study there.

Yeah but foreigners are only allowed to buy private housing and not public housing in Singapore therefore housing may be expensive for middle-class foreigners. So an option for them would be to live in Johor but study and work in Singapore; something like living in the suburbs and working in the city. Many Malaysians commute daily between the countries to do that. Our land crossing is one of the busiest in the world despite our relatively small population.
