Mah Sing sets stage for exciting second half of 2025 with RM3.3bil new launches
With accelerating infrastructure developments and growing interest from both Singaporean and local buyers, the developer is set to roll out a series of residential projects in the southern region, designed to deliver lifestyle, strong value, and sustainable long-term growth.
"We've had a strong presence in Johor since 2000 and will continue to strengthen our operations and broaden our footprint there. The state has the potential to be one of the most liveable, well-connected and economically vibrant regions in the country, which makes it the ideal place for our next wave of developments," said Mah Sing's group chief executive officer and executive director, Datuk Voon Tin Yow.
With over RM1 billion in sales recorded in the first five months of the year, the group is on track to meet its RM2.65 billion sales target. Mah Sing's strategic pivot in Johor builds upon the state's rising economic significance, proximity to Singapore, and the upcoming Johor-Singapore RTS Link – all of which position it as a key growth engine.
M Grand Minori elevates urban living
Leading the launches in Johor is M Grand Minori, the inaugural development in Mah Sing's new M Grand Series. With a gross development value (GDV) of RM1.5 billion, this freehold development occupies a prime 2.42-hectare (ha) parcel in Taman Pelangi, just 3 km from the upcoming Bukit Chagar RTS Link station, which will connect Johor Bahru to Singapore's Woodlands North in just five minutes.
Targeting urban professionals, investors, and cross-border commuters, M Grand Minori offers a mix of serviced apartments and retail units designed for modern lifestyles. The development includes thoughtfully planned layouts, including dual-key options, that cater to investors seeking rental returns as well as multi-generational families.
Surrounded by malls, hospitals, and top-tier schools, and connected via major highways like Tebrau, EDL, and the North-South Expressway, M Grand Minori offers the ideal blend of location, convenience, and modern city living.
M Tiara 2: Gated living for growing families
M Tiara 2 is a 40.63 ha residential development in Skudai with an estimated GDV of RM1.45 billion. Building on the success of the earlier M Tiara phase, the new project is designed to offer a wider range of housing options.
Targeted for launch in Q4 2025, M Tiara 2 will feature a thoughtfully curated mix of double-storey terrace homes (from RM771,600), serviced apartments (from RM253,000), and cluster homes within a gated and guarded community. It will include shop offices.
Nestled between the matured Mutiara Rini and Lima Kedai townships and 2.5 km from major commercial hubs, M Tiara 2 is an ideal choice for discerning families and upgraders looking for more space, better connectivity, and long-term value in southern Johor.
Meridin East: A thriving township for families and investors
Mah Sing's landmark 531.35 ha freehold township in Johor Bahru, Meridin East, is positioned just 2 km from the Senai-Desaru Expressway. This vibrant community is expanding with the much-anticipated launch of Allamanda Phase 6, Jasmine 3, and Ixora Park City in the second half of 2025.
Stylish double-storey terrace homes in Allamanda Phase 6 and Jasmine 3 are attractively priced from RM499,000 and RM620,000, respectively – ideal for upgraders and young families seeking space, comfort and value. Meanwhile, Ixora Park City's shop offices, starting from RM775,000, offer an exciting opportunity for business owners and investors to tap into a growing community.
Featuring a 9-acre scenic lake park and gated precincts, Meridin East is ideal for those seeking a safe, spacious, and nature-integrated lifestyle. Its strategic location provides direct access to Johor Bahru, Singapore, and key commercial zones within Iskandar Malaysia.
A 42-acre industrial parcel is also power-ready and capable of supporting a 300MW building load. This site provides flexibility for data centre players or industrial users seeking scalable infrastructure in the southern region.*
Mah Sing ramps up Klang Valley and Penang projects
In the Klang Valley, Mah Sing continues to expand its M Series with accessible, well-located homes. In Semenyih, the 500-acre M Legasi township (GDV: RM3.3 bil) will launch Impira Phase 2 in August 2025, following strong take-up of Phase 1. Prices start from RM648,000 for double-storey terraces.
Also progressing is M Aspira in Taman Desa (GDV: RM850 mil), just 5 km from Mid Valley, with serviced residences from RM452,000, while nearby Residensi Suria Madani offers affordable units from RM200,000. Both will benefit from a new road link enhancing access to key highways.
Upcoming launches include M Aurora on Old Klang Road (GDV: RM660 mil), a transit-oriented project with twin 37-storey towers, and M Aria in Sentul (GDV: RM283 mil), offering family-sized apartments from RM498,000.

Singapore: Jail and fine for Myanmar man linked to case involving three bank accounts that received over US$531mil in total
SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/ANN): A man linked to a case involving three bank accounts that received more than US$531 million (over S$680 million) in total was sentenced to two years' jail and a fine of S$109,000 on July 30. Myanmar national Nyan Win, 61, who had pleaded guilty to two counts of carrying on a business of providing a payment service in Singapore without a licence, will have to spend an additional six months behind bars should he fail to pay the fine. His Singaporean accomplice Zin Nwe Nyunt, 58, was sentenced to a year and six months' jail on July 14. Court documents stated that Nyan Win, a Singapore permanent resident, and Zin Nwe Nyunt's husband were childhood friends. At the time of the offences, Nyan Win was a director at Piyar International, a company that dealt with motor vehicles. In 2019, another Myanmar national known as Ko Phillip, who operated a commodities trading business, told Nyan Win he was looking for someone to incorporate a company in Singapore to assist in the operations of Ko Phillip's business. This company would then create corporate bank accounts that would be used to receive and transfer funds under Ko Phillip's instructions. He offered Nyan Win a commission of 0.5 Myanmar kyat (S$0.0003) per US dollar received under this arrangement. Nyan Win, who was interested in this opportunity, was uncertain whether he could set up a corporate bank account through Piyar International. Without revealing details, Deputy Public Prosecutor Ryan Lim said this was because banks had previously closed the company's corporate bank accounts. Nyan Win approached Zin Nwe Nyunt's husband and told him about this potential business opportunity with Ko Phillip. As the husband was holding a full-time job, details of which were not disclosed in court documents, he suggested that his wife could assist in the firm's incorporation. It was later agreed between Zin Nwe Nyunt and Nyan Win that the corporate bank accounts would be controlled by Nyan Win. Commissions would then be split between the pair. Zin Nwe Nyunt incorporated wholesale trading company Unione, and from July 2019 to May 2021, she opened accounts with three different banks through the firm. She then handed the banking details to Nyan Win, the court heard. DPP Lim said: 'Across 2020 and 2021, Nyan Win would liaise with Phillip to make arrangements for money to be received into Unione's corporate bank accounts. 'Nyan Win would also receive instructions from Phillip on where to transfer the money once it had been received into the bank accounts. Nyan Win would provide Zin with information regarding the incoming transactions for her to compute the commission amount.' Between January and July 2020, Nyan Win used one of Unione's bank accounts to receive more than US$150 million before the money was transferred out. Following these transactions, Zin Nwe Nyunt made more than $56,000 in commissions while Nyan Win received more than $34,000. On July 21, 2020, the bank closed the account because of the large number of suspicious transactions. The DPP told the court: 'Zin, Nyan Win and Unione did not have in force a valid licence from the Monetary Authority of Singapore and were not an exempt payment service provider.' Following the closure of this account, Zin Nwe Nyunt took instructions from Nyan Win and opened a corporate account with another bank. Between late July 2020 and April 2021, Nyan Win used this account to receive more than US$250 million before the money was transferred out. Zin Nwe Nyunt received nearly $76,000 in commissions, while Nyan Win pocketed more than $50,000. DPP Lim said that between August 2020 and March 2021, a third bank account was used to receive more than US$127 million. Over $119 million was then transferred out. In August 2021, the police received information that an Australian scam victim had transferred US$1.8 million to several bank accounts maintained by companies in Singapore. Investigations revealed three of these firms had transferred more than $480,000 to the third bank account. Investigators then uncovered links between Zin Nwe Nyunt, Unione and Nyan Win. The pair were charged in court in 2023. On July 30, Nyan Win's bail was set at $20,000, and he was ordered to surrender himself at the State Courts on Aug 7 to begin serving his sentence. - The Straits Times/Asian News Network

Former Skudai assemblyman welcomes second RTS proposal
KUALA LUMPUR: Former Skudai assemblyman Dr Boo Cheng Hau has welcomed the Johor government's proposal to establish a second Rapid Transit System (RTS) to connect Tuas in Singapore and Iskandar Puteri in Johor. The proposal was raised by Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi during his meeting with Singapore Prime Minister Lawrence Wong at The Istana in Singapore on Thursday. The second RTS, he said, would help speed up the development of Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone by integrating the connectivity between the two countries. The former DAP Johor chairman also praised Onn Hafiz's openness in listening to opinions from the grounds and his down-to-earth approach in resolving the hardships faced by the ordinary Johoreans. Dr Boo said back in February, he issued a press statement pertaining to the same issue, suggesting a second RTS after having received input from the grassroots and the local guilds' leaders. "I am delighted that the Johor government has taken the suggestion into consideration and officially proposed it to the Singaporean government. "It was hoped that Putrajaya and the Singaporean government would consider the proposal seriously. It would be beneficial to not only Johoreans but also to the development of the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone." Dubbed RTS2, the proposed link, if realised, follows a similar system along the Causeway that is nearing completion and will be part of a broader plan to improve mobility and investment synergy between the two economies. (Link: ) Dr Boo said he does not oppose the Kuala Lumpur-Singapore High-Speed Rail (HSR) projects, but it requires more in-depth due diligence studies as it involves an enormous amount of investments which is beyond Malaysia's financial capacity at the moment. "Nonetheless, it could be reconsidered when Malaysia's financial standings would have improved and the geopolitical environment is more conducive for such a mega project, considering the strategic position of the Johor-Singapore Economic Zone," he said, adding that the policy makers would have to gauge as to whether the geopolitical factors are favourable for such a mega project. He added that the feasibility and demands for HSR could be better reassessed after the double-track Electronic Train System is in full operation and the cost-effectiveness and economic benefits of the HSR could be better reassured.

'Shameless!' — Netizens slam S'porean who asked why M'sians won't share RON95 subsidy
WITH RON95 petrol expected to drop to RM1.99 per litre soon, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim has made it clear: the subsidy is strictly for Malaysians. He stressed that foreigners, including Singaporeans, will have to pay the market price — which could go up to RM2.50 per litre — because only Malaysians are taxpayers and should benefit from the government's subsidy initiatives. ALSO READ: 'Honestly quite absurd' - Singaporean criticises those filling up on RON95 in M'sia But not everyone agrees. A Singaporean netizen recently sparked a Threads debate by questioning Malaysia's fuel subsidy policy. 'Question for the Malaysians of Threads. Why are you against Singaporeans and other nationalities (but specifically Singaporeans) buying RON95 petrol? 'It's high quality and affordable. Why not share with your neighbours? In return we share other things. 'Isn't this called the kampung spirit?' he asked. The comment sparked a flurry of responses from both sides of the Causeway. One netizen called markkhng commented: 'I'm Singaporean and I'm embarrassed by this question. It's their oil, their national product, when it's convenient for you only then you pull out 'kampung spirit'.' 'I'm a Singaporean and am against Singaporean and other nationalities buying RON95 petrol. The Malaysia government susidised it for the Malaysian citizens. Get this right: This is the Malaysians' social benefit,' opined. 'Glad to see so many decent comments from Singaporeans. Many know that it's almost (crime) and fuelling up with RON95 here is akin to stealing our dwindling subsidies. We are not as rich as our neighbours. We do rely on each other but come on, this author's 'suggestion' is downright shameless,' fadhilasatoppi wrote.
