S0 much has changed in Malaysia's property development scene that one may be astonished not only by the new skyline but the different concepts and products that have flooded the market over the past decade.
One may recall the ubiquitous mixed townships that mushroomed all over the country in the late 1980s to the middle of the 1990s. Back then, buying huge tracts of land seemed the norm but the economic slowdown forced many developers to re-strategise as holding costs were high. Towards the end of 1990, there appeared to be fewer mega townships but more smaller niche developments.
