We LOVE reading your comments guys! Thanks so much for watching our videos! 👍👍💙
we love ur content guys, keep it up.
Hi B1M, love your channel man! I hope you can also cover the New Clark City project in the Philippines in the future. Regards
Thank you for your channel!
I am amazed at some of the building projects being constructed around the world today!
Bravo, B1M!
Other than Forest City Johor Bahru, Malaysia has other land reclamation projects under construction.
Hey guys I know its not your usual video but down here is Australia the construction industry is losing trust because of many building defects including cracks in large luxury apartments how does the construction industry keep and regain trust as well as your thoughts on building regulation and self regulation
Asia is over there playing sim city while the US is looking for a new fps
CerealOverdrive that’s honestly true though!
I laughed way too hard at this comment
*while they gonna naruto to area 51
hahahaha
Because US is rich enough compare to 5 wealthy asian countries. Why does US waste money to build island where it can develop on real island and still profitable and give benefit,etc etc. This is a smart choice for USA. Malaysia need to make new island to attract tourist,make money,etc. But USA doesnt . Now which one is smarter ?
"The developer has promised to provide more affordable homes." Yeah we all know that's not going to happen. Heard it a thousand times.
Developer: the housing will be affordable!
Also developer: these condos and houses will cost over 1million
It’s got a fucking seaview of course they’re not going to do that
Lol.....
10% discount 😂😂😂
@@jow8480 gud 1😂😂😂
ffs how many of these condos are going to be empty vacation homes and financial assets?
As many as people want? Doesn't concern you, it's not your money buying the property so don't complain about what others do with theirs lol
Most of them. Especially if the Chinese keep buying since they make a habit of buying lots of property and renting it out
@@KevinJohnson-cv2no It matters as long as there are homeless people. In the UK there are more empty homes than homeless people because of this and I reckon it is similar throughout the world. Instead of spending 100Bn on this, much less money could be spent to solve homelessness in Malaysia
@@Belfry_pat Yeah and instead of buying that suit in your avi you could've donated to some starving children; you might even have some room your home for some too, right? We can spend all day talking about what "could've" been done with money, but just because problems exist doesn't mean the whole world has to stagnate to solve them; that's cave-man logic. What other people do with their property is none of your business, it's as simple as that.
Probably quite a few, especially if the demand for residence in the Forest City is driven by Chinese demand.
Inshallah Malaysia will become an innovative and technological advanced county in that region. Love and respect from Turkey ☺🇹🇷

I love how planting trees suddenly makes things ecological
It's like putting some trees and plants around an oil facility.
Better than no trees💁
Humans never learn about the truth things about this world,putting trees then complains it is not an ecological city,meanwhile they destroyed and burning trees more than us just to build a city like NYC or in San Francisco
Think that's also how Singapore became know as the "Garden City". It replaced large amounts of forests with suburbs, but to be fair they're quite intensely/densely populated, so it's not exactly urban sprawl, & trees are planted along the roads too. What's more ironic is that the Gardens by the Bay, which the government proudly says proves it's willingness to sacrifice prime downtown land to build a park, feels quite *hot* because the ground is paved in *concrete* (though the 'Supertrees' there are supposed to act as cooling towers)
Some cities build with nature instead of cutting it all down.
The B1M is a channel that makes me wish I could live longer and see what happens to our society, cities and cultural preferences in the 50-100 year future.

Or will they just bus them out at the end of the day... love the channel but a lot of these constructions lately just look and feel like trophies and not marvels.
R RQ not anytime soon the economics doesn’t work in Malaysia, labour is far cheaper!
R RQ Ummm yeah AI robots may be a thing but they are not going to be cheap. They will need an engineering teams to service these massive Islands where services labour force is super cheap in comparison. It’s economics.
AI robots would not replace 100% of the workforce though. According to my economics class if humans (workers) do not have salaries or money then no one would consume the products made by robots, or even spend anything. Unless, economic goods become free goods like the air that we breathe. But I don't think that's gonna happen at all.
Yup its going to end up an empty shell of a city

I feel that B1M could occasionally do more than essentially promote big projects like this and offer more of a critique and highlight some key downsides much more than they do.
I guess they are trying to make these megaprojects feel exciting instead pointing out the pros and cons of these megaprojects. (For example pointing that a lot of government projects get scrapped with a new president/prime minster, they usually get scaled back heavily if they are finished or they are scrapped because of lack of funds or lack of public support.)
@@philippeturgeom5653 you can make a project exciting even with discussing pros and cons, otherwise it's propaganda or at least free advertising.

They just admire engineering projects. They did a video on a city being built in Egypt and honestly I don't think it's gonna be finished. Too unrealistic and too ambitious
They are about architecture and infrastructure design, not political or social commentators.
Reality: Malaysian market has so many unsold properties.
Developer: Lets build more properties that most likely are not going to be sold.
Really?
@@gingerteddy618 yup, plenty of unsold expensive condos all over here. but they keep building them i seriously dont get it
@@heri9949 it's to sell to chinese investors who buy em as an investment in hopes of preseving their wealth and to make a profit off it in the future
@@hassanalbolkiah127 theres an over suply of housing and no one is buying them pretty shit investment i think
@@gingerteddy618 absolutely. I just don't get it. Affordable housing should be maximum MYR 200K, but the developer kept building MYR 500K condos. To make matter worst, the people who are able to buy MYR 500K condo chose to buy the MYR 200K house and rent it at price so high to the point two working adults barely able to pay the rent.

@@amarhafiez9244 The problem is that you only take uneducated low skilled labors from Bangladesh for the construction of this type of project.

with 70% foreign owned I'm worried it's just speculation and nobody will live there, and when it starts to crash it might not be interesting anymore because job creation was not sustained.

Hello
Singapore had also expressed concern that the land reclamation involved in Forest City would push the international border closer towards Singapore
Look how low those islands are. They are gonna be swallowed by sea real quick
It's really strange because this type of landfill is happening all over, especially in the Persian Gulf. It would seem these real estate schemes are meant for laundering money and/or tax avoidance. Perhaps a future apartment of no value surrounded by rising water is just the cost of doing business.
Eventually, these concrete buildings should be imploded becoming mini-islands for Nature to reclaim a little back from so much that we have destroyed.
thats a good point, Real estate developers (the clever ones at least) dont have to worry about any of that though. right now, conditions are great for building a giant city mere feet above the sea level, if the developer can build and sell the properties off before anyone raises issue with it they will be set for life.
This kind of stuff happens all the time in Canada and the US, entire subdivisions get built in flood zones and vital wetlands and then get ruined when the once every 3 year flood occurs. its getting so bad that insurance companies are starting to refuse insuring customers in these areas, which in turn should reduce the amount of future construction in these sensitive areas.

Being a Malaysian, this gives me hope that this project will allow my homeland to become a tiger economy again.
The integration with Singaporean economy is whats gonna make this city successful.
Singapore desperately needs more landmass to expand and Malaysia is only capitalising on that via effective biz friendly policies and infrastructural integration with Singapore.
Such burgeoning growth will not only attract local Malaysians to this city, it will also attract mass immigration from abroad as well. Malaysia’s population is small which is why we have so many immigrants in Malaysia already to support the high economic growth.
Malaysia will be successful without Singapore as it is, but tapping into Singapore just speeds the whole process like crazy since Singapore is burgeoning with wealth.
Which is why its not impossible to say this project will become successful.
A foreign state build an artificial city in your country is to make profit for itself , not make you a tiger economy.
@@bowlampar how is it a profit for foreign state ?
The malaysian govt reduced its size hitting their own foot. At that reduced the industrial R&D district size

Nobody is welling to invest in these empty residential building block but Chinese. Your thinking seems stupider than I thought!
@@KBS_ar , thats why he concern! Why wanna sold towards Chinese who never want to coop with local?
The Chinese Investors are "buying" (for "Investment Purposes") as much property as they can, wherever they can, not just in the Asia region. Here in the Western World we are seeing successive governments, irrespective of which side of politics they're on, allowing more and more Chinese "Investment." What will happen when the Chinese own all our farms? How will the rest of us eat? China is already at *1.42 Billion* people as at July 2018, so naturally China will look after China before giving a mere crumb to the people of the countries whose land they "invested" in.
The question is now: "How do you stop (or say NO! to) the country with the largest population on Earth?" (I note too that India isn't far behind China, population-wise.)
Never make a deal with the chinese. Simple.

Chinese investors are also buying everything in Vancouver, Canada. The resulting housing crisis affects the local people that have lived in Vancouver for generations. They can no longer afford to live there and are forced to live further and further from the city center.
This is also affecting Toronto in a big way and has even started to create problems in Montreal, on the other side of the continent. Non-Canadians are buying properties in Canada purely as investment, they don't even live there!
Well Johor have many landed double storey Terrence selling roughly the same price as forest city 2 bedroom condo. N this project is so damn far away from city center

this is absolutely incredible... but I always have reservations with projects like this. It seems very utopian Corbusier-style, which we know doesn't work as well as cities that grew in incrimental ways like Manhattan or Paris. I also see that cities like Minneapolis, Milwaukee, and Chicago (or any other American city for that matter) have so much space for many more people within our grid, yet we would rather imagine something different on virgin spaces altogether!
Hello Samuel
You're wrong... The occupancy rate here is low although it was near complete... It had become the most expensive ghost town in Malaysia. The city serves no purpose other than looking good. Plus, it does not solve the housing issues in Johor Bahru too.
Go Malaysia from ph🇵🇭
3:35
This means the city will have 500,000 unemployed people... 😅😅
No, it means 500,000 units are designed to sell and then sit vacant as they accrue value over time for the investor. Luxury skyscrapers are being built all over the world right now that no one can live in and no one can afford, other than those people who already live in a fancy skyscraper apartment. They choose luxury construction because of the tax benefits. No free market force would be eliminating working class people's ability to live less than an absurd number of hours of driving from the city they work during a supposedly strong economy. We're being robbed. Rich foreign investors that you didn't vote for are obtaining so much control over our places of residence and our cities that they can evict all the low-profit poor people they don't want there with the right strategy, all to make more units to sell for investment purposes only. This gravy train is bigger than oil. No government in the world seems to be willing to stand up to these rich multi-national real estate investors.
Not necessarily so,it's not so far away from Johor Bahru which is the state capital

@@yourgrand654 please prove it!!
I'm not sure how you can justify the economic benefit for regular people in regards to these megaprojects.
That statement sounds like something a development company would say to convince a cities planning board to get permission to build an area up locals would never be able to afford.
These kinds of projects only benefit the super wealthy. Even minor development causes gentrification.
Sadly, there's no winning because no development causes cost of living to skyrocket as well, as you can see in California's Bay Area.
The sad reality is, most of these projects are feeding into a very unstable bubble. This bubble is already showing signs of bursting in NYC where ultra-highend skyscrapers with condos worth tens of millions of dollars is on the verge of collapsing.
This can also be seen in London where neighborhoods got so expensive, locals had to flee.
These projects rarely take local communities into consideration.
So what's the solution? I don't entirely disagree with you but at least these projects bring foreign investment, which means more money flowing into the Malaysian economy - which I don't think can _hurt_ the local population.
@@tjs200 Development trends seem to favor luxury buildings over regular buildings. This seems to be the biggest culprit in extreme housing costs in cities today.
For example, in NYC, any new building is automatically marketed and rented/sold as luxury units. This prevents most people in a given area from buying or renting.
In my area alone, the price difference between newly built buildings and older buildings can be over $1k per month in rent. This also caused more affordable buildings to raise their prices to keep the market balanced, screwing everyone in the process.
The other point I made was how this over-saturation of the luxury market is about to cause a collapse, which will not only negatively effect local economies, but also hurt developers bottom line.
One solution that comes to mind is developing mid-range and lower-mid-range buildings to keep the market strong. This not only positively effects locals, but also developers.
Unfortunately, most development groups are too fixated on quick high-yield returns to care about that market segment, even if it means it'll bite them in the ass in the future. Short-sightedness at its best.
@@xxxdroidmonkeyxxx maybe because developing property is so expensive, due to the cost of real estate and red tape, that making luxury housing is the only thing that makes economic sense for developers? Just a theory
@@xxxdroidmonkeyxxx Perhaps if cities provided economic incentives to develop affordable housing (instead of just requiring it by law) developers would be more willing to do so.
@@tjs200 That's not just a theory. That's a fact. The insane amount of red tape involved in development drives the costs up like crazy. So does labor costs, materials and so on.
Local governments can give tax incentives to developers to mitigate some of those costs. Some cities, like NYC for example also prioritize building permits for developers who dedicate a small percentage of units for low income residents.

Many people said in comments about "The sea level rises", "What if a tsunami comes" Bla Bla Bla. It's not gonna happen I'm living 20km away from Forest City and I know well about the water level and It is considered not Sea. It's a Big Lake we barely even see waves. and in the 2030s year, we don't think we still might have that lake because they already buried 30% of the lake Thank You for caring.
Looks like a wonderfully planned, beautiful city, seems like they are trying hard to not murder the natural elements present there now. I applaud that.
I can see a lot fo pollution coming out of that place though: noise, air, worst of all water.
I really hope they do much better than any previous cities.
Hopefully, we humans can learn a lot from this city and move more in the direction of having bustling, modern cities that don't do terrible things to the natural world - the best of both worlds.
I hate compromises:
Traditional Option 1. perfect natural world with lots of natural life, but no development and utter poverty.
Traditional Option 2: bustling, advanced city with high employment, lots of money and total disaster to the plant, animal and fungi life of the region.
Hello Sir
I had a look at the area in Malaysia north of Singapore on Google Earth and there's plenty of construction everywhere. Singapore and the surrounding region in Malaysia are going to form an amazing metropolis in the coming years.
I wondered how many Malaysian get a job to build Forest City and afford to live here?
Not many, most rich Malaysian will probably buy a 2nd house in here but they’ll probably stay in KL, the middle class will move there, and Indonesian corruptors will probably flee there like they did in Singapore, which is great for the city’s economy.
This reminds me of Walt Disney's original plan for Epcot.
In American, we can't even fund maintenance on our existing bridges and roads. But we do have a huuuge military. Time for some changes in Washington.
Without army US has no power, if they renounce to their army they will be literally giving the world to China...
And that huge military provides protection for countries that cannot defend themselves against their regional enemies.
2:36 you can dispute that Taiwan is not China, that parts of Chinese-controlled Kashmir is not China, but you cannot dispute that Hainan - the island slightly below China - isn’t China
There is currently a hotel (Phoenix Hotel) and a mall that are now opened. We stayed there earlier this year to experience a man made island. Entire project is undertaken and financed by a Chinese developer. Most buyers we were informed are from overseas.
Maybe B1M can cover topic about world only dual function tunnel, SMART Tunnel in Malaysia
Looks very impressive.
Success or an expensive Flop.
Times will tell.
When people take simcity too seriously!
Let’s build something like this off the Florida keys. I’m actually working on a little city derived from this on my computer with pictures. But of course my little creation has like five main islands. The first island looks exactly like this. One of the islands is a large downtown consisting of condos hotels and office buildings with a walkable landscape on the ground level of every building with shops and restaurants. A much much much bigger land or island that I came up with would be larger than the size of Ishkandar. That island what house the mainland and the suburbs. Wow the main islands what house over 1 million people, the main area in total with the main islands and the biggest island would house a total population of 3,000,000 to 5,000,000 people. Every building would be constructed through Modular construction and pre-fabricated construction. Most parts of the suburbs would have a new urbanist community and each suburb would have their own downtown like mixed use development. Even all of the schools will be constructed prefab and modular and every building would be fully solar powered and off the grid.the main islands would be a full smart city. I call it Silverado Fl. The county would be called Sun Coast County. It would have a school district known as Sun Coast County Public Schools with up to 750,000 students in high-tech schools. The main part of the city will have a 3D multi-layered concept like Forest City.

It will start by 2100
The pyramid city is quite not possible with current technology.Also it will be the biggest marvel ever built in modern world
This sounds like promotional content. Is it?
All of their videos are like this. No critical discuss about the sustainability and downsides of these projects.
If China are investing billions in a project why not get Westerners to promote it without doing a critical analysis of the downside of being in debt to the Chinese Communist Party.

Hello
Hi guys, Malaysian here. I don't claim to speak for all Malaysians, but I know many who share my views. This development has little to do with us Malaysians. The developers paid the royals of Johor state to allow them to build those islands, paid for it with Chinese financing, designed it with Chinese designers, built it with Chinese contractors, and sold the vast majority of the development to Chinese buyers who mostly buy it to have a place to put their money outside of China (whether ill gotten or not) as a 2nd, 3rd, 4th or Xth home. What we have here is an enclave of China, with Malaysians benefiting little, save the royals.
This is how Chinese are successful than Malays you know

Where do the seawalls go for the current rising sea levels and future higher sea levels? Or is this going to be a new Venice? Laurie
@Hwllo LW JCarroll, How are you doing?
Why should the local buy these property if they already have own land?? Damn too expensive.
Forest City is a future and modern urban project to rival Singapore's mainland.

Hello Francis
The title should be: China's $100BN smart Island on Malaysia
I've been there a few times now, and although it's almost complete, the occupancy is still low. It's really Malaysia's newest ghost town. I don't understand the purpose of it as it should sell the units to the locals and solve housing issues, but it's still too expensive for the locals. In short this project is useless except for looking good.
Sadly Dr. M scared the Chinese investors away. Hopefully now they can lower the prices for Malaysians and Singaporeans.
Bro it ain’t useless at all , fr trust me there’s a lot of rich Chinese at there , of course they don’t want some peasants at there
@@_bryan.nn21 that's not the problem, it's supposed to solve housing crisis, yet peeps still build expensive shit that is so expensive that it do little to Malaysia itself
The Johor-Singapore MRT was proposed in 2010, later was planned to be operational in 2018. Now it is now targeted 2026 to be operational with a much weaker LRT version. After decades watching the money politics, and politicians, it will be a strange idea to expect the Johor-Singapore LRT to be ready in 2026, and whether it can last or even live up to its expectation of easing the congestion at the causeway.
5:20, everyone owns an Audi R8 in the island city.
Only Chinese 👍
Imagine if Tesla got a contract to allow only electric cars on the islands. Would be a perfect example of a clean city. If they had a plastic ban too that would just be too cool.
I can already see huge trouble coming for these island . Including everything and everyone around it.
Hello Texgal
Another very interesting and insightful presentation. South East Asia is certainly going ahead in leaps and bounds.
Johor forest city is not the only man made island that china build, theres malacca harbour city and theres a 3 island in penang. All in the straits of malacca in malaysia. And there a lot of empty houses in malaysia.
Im checking google Earth now
Arjun अर्जुन् 90 it still early. Nothing that u will see in google earth but u can google harbour city melaka and Penang south reclamation.
