Any mega project must be planned in detail with prudence and caution. Many years of study is needed and top minds must weigh the pro and cons in minute details. It should be a do or die approach and not 'tidak apa' kind of attitude. Forest City in JB suffered the same fate. Any of such project that failed always points to corruption within the management and officials.

if you hv a one party gov, you have no issue in any project provided they are not corrupted. Mahathir had screwed up all agreed projects and paid all penalties. Now M'sia regretted after seeing Whoosh is going faster in Indonesia economy. All projects are connected with the Melaka port, Iskandar shah, and the east coast rail line.

Same China ccp project 😊

these projects generate 'revenue' - billions for certain greedy politicians etc.

I heard that Kaj was allowed to resume the project. Anyone in Malacca can tell me if the contruction has restarted? Thanks.

It was destined to be a flop project from the start , too ambitious , it was to attract Chinese Mainland occupant first with a staggering amount of forecasted dwellers but in the end it didn't materialised and that Chinese developers company went down tumbling with a huge amount of default debts and and borrowing.

How come melaka reclaim land no protest like Penang South Island scale?

The part narratived China to by pass Straits of Melaka seems to be very disinformation and author knows nothing about Straits of Melaka nor Malaysia in broader context. Melaka's project has bunch of endless problems start with improper reclamation, earth settlement, substandard construction, reclaimed and building settlement (sinking), flooding to existing city, environment impact and worse of all Melaka lost it's historical values when the historical shore was gone and out of context. >30 years ago extensively studied and masterplan was done by academia professional but was later destroyed and abandoned for profits purpose. Invited Chinese is not to be blame but local politicians initiated these are questionable.

Agree. This is basically part of the demonization & disinformation campaign of China & its BRI by the West (now with India roped in). If one were to scratch deep enough the surface on the video producer, it doesn't surprised anyone it is funded by NED, USAID, USAGM, etc. Notice how the video uses source like that Chapell guy from China Uncensored a YT channel funded by the anti-China cult Falun Gong LOL🤣. And also use of unauthoritative anecdotal serani source from Portugis settlement for their narrative 🤣. That said there's some factual truth in the video, but they're being used to build up a false narrative.

When the government changes hand like so frequently, doing big projects is a risk. Malaysian politics used to be stable long time ago and that was when development was most prosperous

Next could be Penang South Island project.

KAJ such a small company invoveld in Mega project what's a surprised this project is so huge.

Sadly not only be white elephant but become ghost city where goblins went rampage at night

Malaysia have an overcapacity of ports? .. I have dealt with people in Port Klang, Tanjung Pelepas and Pasir Gudang, and they can barely cope with the present amount of cargo as it is. To put things into perspective, Singapore is in the process of their biggest port expansion. Talk about "overcapacity".

Its quite awkward when the person who is seen as an activist against the reclamation was actually quiet when his political boss were in power and was planning to extend the reclamation under Project 2026 and now with the change of government, he appears again as an activist. hypocrite lah

Yes, it seems difficult for Malaysia to plan for any long-term projects because of their rapidly vacillating political landscape.

Don't mess with mega projects which will not benefitted the local peoples but rather give the control of the land to a foregin companies.

Malacca's population has minimum growth to support mega residential and industrial projects.

As of February 2022, the project has resumed the development of its first island, Projek Pembangunan Pulau Satu (PME1), after receiving approval from the State Government through an agreement signed on 23 February. [8] 😊

Not only in Malaysia, how many PRC Mega projects been failed in many countries.

Whatever mega projects you can build will fail if attention is not paid to overhaul the road and commuting systems in the whole of Melaka. It's a gridlock.

China will further develop the port into a deep sea port for int'l shipping line to transit bypassing Singapore. Remember history, Melaka was once used as a stop over port for Arab & Chinese traders in the early days before Portuguese invasion. Singapore was only a swampy land with little fishing village.

The Portuguese (or Kristang) Community are of Portuguese and Malay decent and are just like other ethnic minorities such as the Chinese and Indians and are 100% Malaysian citizens which have nothing to do with modern day Portugal. As citizens, they have the right to voice out concerns over what they fear will destroy their way of life and what little culture they have left. As a Melakan, I can also vouch that there are far too many white elephant projects to justify further development of this new megaproject. If the government is really interested in increasing tourism, they ought to focus on what Melaka already has by focusing resource to restore existing historical monuments and perhaps create replicas of old long gone ones to attract tourists' interest

Not to mention that it brings foreign direct investments to Malaysia in important areas like manufacturing and services.
