Rahman, Serina | November 2017
Abstract
This Perspective examines the results of a study commissioned by the ISEAS-Yusof Ishak Institute and conducted by the Merdeka Center. This is a follow-up to an earlier survey commissioned in 2013 that also sought the views of Johore residents on myriad issues. This paper presents an analysis of selected responses in relation to Iskandar Malaysia and development in Johor, with additional insights into views of Singapore and PRC investments, as well as the Forest City and PIPC projects.
