PETALING JAYA: Thomson Medical Group (TMG) has unveiled its landmark Johor Bay mega development, an RM18bil gross development value (GDV) project set to transform the Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone (JS-SEZ).

The 26-acre freehold master plan will be anchored by the Thomson Hospital Iskandariah, alongside specialist suites, aged care, and assisted living facilities.

Complementing this healthcare nucleus will be luxury residences, a five-star hotel, commercial spaces, and lifestyle precincts – positioning Johor Bay as the “Marina Bay of Johor.”

Strategically located just 1.2km from the future rapid transit system station at Bukit Chagar, Johor Bay is designed as an integrated ecosystem for cross-border healthcare, urban living, and long-term investment.

Phase One, valued at RM3.1bil, includes the hospital and a 47-storey luxury residential tower with 180 exclusive units.

This phase is expected to generate more than 1,200 jobs, contributing to the JS-SEZ’s wider goal of creating 20,000 skilled jobs over five years.

TMG executive vice-chairman Kiat Lim said: “The time is right: economic tailwinds, infrastructure momentum, and demographic shifts are converging. Johor Bay will shape the skyline and future of the JS-SEZ for years to come.”
