Jb and our tourism industry boomed under badawi. All because of visa free entry. Singaporean invested heavily in jb properties, mostly landed. Live in jb and work in singapore. Forest city idea was to get more singaporeans to live in jb. And why not?

Australia allowed hundreds of thousands of immigrants…
