    [KUALA LUMPUR] A new mixed-use development with an estimated gross development value of RM2.6 billion (S$787 million) will be built in Bukit Chagar in Johor Bahru.

    The project – which will have residential, retail, hospitality, healthcare, and education components – will be integrated with the upcoming Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link, which is slated to be completed by the end of 2026.

    Two Malaysian companies – Mass Rapid Transit Corp (MRT Corp) and Sunway Group – signed a partnership agreement in Johor Bahru on Thursday (Feb 13) to develop a 1.7-hectare prime plot near the Bukit Chagar RTS Link Station.
