Singapore and Johor regent agree to swap land parcels at Holland Road

[lampano]

SINGAPORE: The Singapore government has agreed to swap land parcels at Holland Road with Johor’s regent Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim, the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) and the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) said on Tuesday (Jun 10).

Tunku Ismail, who is also Crown Prince of Johor, currently owns 21.1ha of land at Holland Road. The Johor regent “plans to develop his land”, which has been under the private ownership of the Johor royal family for generations, the authorities said in a joint media release.

The land swap is so that the regent's "planned developments will be further away from the Singapore Botanic Gardens UNESCO World Heritage Site”, the press release said.

Never forgive the Johor royal family for hosting and allowing Yamashita and his top brass to setup their command post at their istana which has a birds eye view for the attack on Singapore.
