South Johor Economic Region #1: Iskandar Development Region, will it be successful?

Everybody has since middle 2006 talking about South Johor Economic Region a.k.a. Iskandar Development Region (IDR), people has been asking me whether or not it will be a success?

Let me start off by asking you all one simple question, i.e. do you want IDR to be successful? If the answer is positive, then we shall have a good start at the very least.

If you have studied IDR in detail like I did (you can download the whole detailed IDR proposal from http://sjer.com.my/index.php), you will then notice the proposal encompass a comprehensive and thorough development plan in not just economy, but also social economy. Though I find the proposal to be rather seamless, however, implementation is what i really feel the true challenge in the overall planning. Mindset of our government servants involved are required to take a change. It's all about human factor.

The IDR is a gigantic project and vision for all Johorean and our federal government, it will take all the concerted effort we can get in order to make it a success. So, if u ask me the very same old question again, why don't you start asking yourself back, what can you do to help to make IDR a success?
