Iskandar has lopsided development

Too many many highrise condos

Too many shophouses

Too little landed houses priced below rm400k a unit

Only way to clear these glut is to

1. Encourage US Companies in China to relocate to Iskandar.
Give 10 year special tax break for new companies

2. Reduce threshold for foreign property buyers from Rm1 millions limit to Rm500k immediately

3. Give China and Hong Kong visa free entry to encourage tourism

4. Go and do full promotion in Hong Kong and Shenzhen

5. Remove all barrier and encourage more foreign fdi and migration to Iskandar

Malaysia must not be lethargic and let this opportunity slip by.

"Vietnam is by far the largest beneficiary, gaining 7.9% of GDP from trade diversion, where trade diversion is mostly additional U.S. imports," said the authors of the report published by the financial holding company Nomura. "For the next top three, Chile, Malaysia and Argentina, the trade diversion is mostly additional China imports."
