Forest City, a Chinese-built housing complex in Johor, Malaysia, has been described as a 'ghost town' by a resident who moved out after six months. The resident, Nazmi, expressed dissatisfaction with the development, stating that he 'didn't care about the deposit' and 'had to get out.' The project has garnered attention due to its vacant appearance, prompting comparisons to a 'ghost city.' The development's status and impact on the local community have raised concerns and attracted media coverage from outlets such as BBC News.
This sounds like a plot line straight out of Slumdog Millionaire, but no it's in Abbotsford, BC. https://t.co/VbqiWhDyWC https://t.co/jvRDBkk2Xt
"A yr ago Nazmi moved to ForestCity, a sprawling Chinese-built housing complex in Johor, Malaysia. After 6mos he'd had enough w/what he calls 'the ghost town'. "I didn't care abt my deposit, I didn't care abt the money. I had to get out" Sounds charming https://t.co/bzlXyCciQF
