  • I went to Forest City expecting to add to the many UA-cam videos of gloom and doom about the US$100 million future city project which has been beset by problems.
    But in the end I just had a great time with my friend and would highly recommend it as a place to take your kids if Desaru is too far to travel. (I know I said Mersing, but I meant Desatu)
    Many thanks for watching.

    I'm so happy to say that this might be the best ever vlog from you 👍👍 Great camera works 👍 Crystal clear audio 👍 Pleasant and suitable background music 👍 Plus, interesting and informative coverage on the information 👍 If in the near future suddenly Forest City gained new investors and residents, you're the reason behind it 👍🙂

    Hey Thanks for the mention! Great to see Leo! It sure is hard to find good friends these days. The city looks promising and very nice! They need people there asap to keep it maintained before it goes too far south.

      Maintenance is a foreign concept here. It's usually wait until it breaks and abandon it.

      The project was mainly attracting China expat to live and stay as a second home/villas/kid for international school, once the MM2H restriction was lifted, it was still an attractive destination. Of course, hope the price could be cheaper or affordable

    Stay there at your own cost. Please be aware that forest city is built on reclaimed land. Is the site foundation and building quality up to standard ? Has the developer taken into consideration and control when sea level rises due to global climate change ?

    • @byteme9718

      Nothing was taken into consideration other than profit for the developers and the cost of bribes to get the project approved.

    This place is only good for tourists (both local and foreign). But living here is like living in a cemetery! Out of all the units here only 1% is living as an owners, most of the investors who own some do not live here. You can see how empty the place is, not even a coffee shop is open, most businesses are closed! The government should buy the remaining units and turn it to housing accommodation for poor Malaysian people.
