  I made a visit to the Iskandar region in Johore. The Malaysian government first mooted the idea of Iskandar Malaysia in 2005 and since then they have invested extensively in building up the infrastructure in the region.

   Iskandar has a land area of 2,217 sq km which is 3 times the size of Singapore. Within this region, the population is 1.4mil and is expected to grow to 3mil by 2025. It’s target of US$31,100 GDP per capita by 2025 would put it into the top 30 countries of today.

  Such lofty goals are targeted to be achieved by building up 6 key sectors ; Leisure & Tourism, Financial Advisory, Health & Wellness, Creative, Education and Trade & Logistics.

    Iskandar region will complement Singapore by allowing companies here to

located their back-office functions there to take advantage of lower operating costs.
