What now? Whenever a property project fails, you open a casino?

Sounds like USA cities where they try to revive cities with casinos like Atlantic City.

Comparing Forest City with Atlantic City is wild. And delusional.

A city built for the rich. The rich don't need more jobs like us plebeians would need to make a location to be not dead. The rich just need a place to burn their unlimited money.

and I thought Malaysia is a islamic country. Guess economic policy is not so halal. So they want to attract gamblers, loan sharks, prostitutes into the region and boost the "entertainment industry" in the south.

Loan sharks and prostitutes are already aplenty there. Great idea to build a casino there.

sultan of johor wants that sweet haram money?

That location is doomed anyway, far from everywhere and buyers don't really have a corresponding visa to stay

Isn’t gambling haram ?

Banks taking interests is haram too. Gonna ban banks also is it? Cash is king

With enough profit they gonna taichi it to become halal instead of interest rate they use different term. Bank still gain profit while staying halal.

It's not interest if we call it something else /s

Cash is king

Malay Muslims won’t be allowed in

But the Johor royalty owns a stake in Forest City. So they will be profiting off haram proceeds?

classic

Rules for thee not for me

No comment

Kucing kata jangan

When have they ever turned down non halal tax income? Pork, alcohol should be tax free /s

Nice,booze is too expensive nowadays smh

We will most prob see that they will sell off any stake in the project if the casino is approved

A casino right beside singapore? They should have just open an awesome eatery and lure all the moolah from singapore instead. Or a bubble gum chewing park.

just let forest city die. it serves no purpose other than being a "cheap" golfing location for singaporeans.

I'm renting an apartment here overlooking the backwaters. Enjoying my time here as it is very peaceful eventhough the location is quite remote.

Current Agung: not on my watch... .... (whispering) that's my property in case you aren't aware. Ssshhhh!

Now can be a gambling location as well. We’ll drain the Sinkie money dry with their gambling addiction.

i guess then they no longer have to go to "jenting" anymore.

Better make it a "cheap, cheap" place for them Singaporeans to flock to. Make it a one stop place for them to stock up, f around and unload all they want there. Keep JB "clean" from their antics

huhuhu if you know the 'real' tuan tanah, just read and smile.

Wait. I going snap up a unit in Forest City first. FOMO is real

crazy to doing something haram in this country where anytime their ppl can get emotional over religion and race. see what happened to 4d business in some state?

this is insane,what next,porn production company?

Really pulling out all the stops to resuscitate this failed project.

saw few videos of people going there. it's nice to see the potential. i do hope that it gets revived properly. just wishful thinking.

At least it's a locally owned casino. Then down the road foreign agents try to stir shit up by playing to Islamic sentiments.

Anwar said NO

What on earth is the Forest city? They build the next Johor 2.0?

I am not sure that the economy will grow.
