The upcoming Special Economic Zone (SEZ) in Johor Bahru is set to transform the region into a dynamic hub for economic growth and investment. 

Positioned strategically close to Singapore, this SEZ offers attractive incentives like tax breaks and streamlined regulations, making it a compelling option for Singaporean investors.

However, with rising interest in Johor's property market and the promise of improved connectivity through projects like the High-Speed Rail (HSR), questions about sustainability and long-term viability arise.

As the SEZ takes shape, understanding its potential impact on both Johor and Singapore becomes crucial.

We take a closer look at the opportunities and risks with Govinda Singh, Head of Hotels & Leisure & Real Estate Advisory, Colliers.
