A DETAILED environmental impact assessment (DEIA) report for the proposed Forest City Island Reclamation and Mixed Development off southwest Johor has been approved by Malaysia's Department of Environment (DoE), paving the way for the project's continuation.
But the project appears to have been scaled down by about a fifth, with the finalised "landform" for the four islands totalling 4,012.5 acres (1,623.8 hectares) instead of the original 5,000 acres (2,023.4 hectares). The DoE gave its nod of approval on Friday, and informed of its decision on its website on Monday.
