The Iskandar Development Region (IDR) is set to become Southern Peninsular Malaysia's most developed region, where
living, entertainment, environment and business seamlessly converge within a bustling and vibrant metropolis.
Located in Johor, the southern gateway to Peninsular Malaysia, IDR is only six to eight hours flight radius from Asia's
burgeoning growth centers such as Bangalore, Dubai, Hong Kong Seoul, Shanghai, Taipei and Tokyo. It is also within
reach of a global market of some 800 million people. South Johor is accessible by four ways; air, land, rail and sea. The
available Senai International Airport provides easy access by air travel. By road, Kuala Lumpur is just a three-hour drive
while Singapore's Changi International Airport is just a 55 minutes drive. Rail travel is also available. IDR is flanked by
three major ports, the Pasir Gudang Port, Port of Tanjung Pelepas and Tanjung Langsat Port.
IDR aims to be a sustainable region of international standard. IDR will spur economic developments that actuate
Malaysia's global potential. IDR offers state-of-the-art physical infrastructure and a world-class business environment like
excellent logistical facilities, cyber cities, and central business administration. South Johor as a whole complements
Singapore's growth strategy with an environment that provides an alternative "quality of life". Recognising South Johor's
strategic importance to national development, the Federal Government supports the State in respect of planning,
implementation, coordination, control, management, finance and promotion to ensure the success of the Iskandar
Development Region.
Recognising the potential of the IDR region as a whole, Profitable Properties is now the exclusivemarketer of UEM
properties in Singapore. UEM Group's holding company, UEM Group Berhad (UEM), is wholly owned by Khazanah
Nasional Berhad. Khazanah Nasional is the Malaysian Government's investment arm.
