Iskandar Puteri

The Port of Tanjung Pelepas was completed in 2000 as one of the pet projects of then prime minister Mahathir Mohamad. Positioning itself as a much cheaper alternative to the long-dominant port of Singapore, it was hugely successful in its early years, attracting the world's two largest shipping lines, Maersk and Evergreen, to move their operations from Singapore. Today, it remains the second busiest port in Malaysia (after Port Klang), and serves as a complement to the port in Pasir Gudang in serving the Johor Bahru metropolitan area. Plans have been mooted to demolish the Causeway to allow ships to sail directly from Tanjung Pelepas to Pasir Gudang, though little to no progress has been made in bringing the plan to fruition.

Iskandar Puteri was established as a town with the name Nusajaya. In January 2016, it was renamed "Iskandar Puteri" by Sultan of Johor. In November 2017, it was upgraded to a city. The city's development remains patchy: while parts are busy and lively, the skyscraper-heavy areas of Puteri Harbour and particularly Forest City have largely failed to attract wealthy foreign investors, resulting in half-built developments rotting in the jungle.

Malay language is the official language of Johor. However, English is widely used as the second language by basically everyone in day-to-day trading and business activities, except in the very rural village areas. Most of the public places areas are written bilingually in Malay and English, with other places with additional Chinese or Tamil languages. The influx of expatriates and foreign workers from South and Southeast Asia has added to the mix of the languages used in the city, and also increased the importance of English language as the lingua franca.

Iskandar Puteri has an equatorial climate that's humid and hot all year round. The northeast monsoon from November to January can bring prolonged heavy rains and slightly cooler temperatures.

The city does not have its own airport. The nearest airport is the Senai International Airport (JHB ^IATA) serving Johor Bahru with destinations to cities in Malaysia and countries within Southeast and East Asia. It has many connecting flights to Malaysia's main airport Kuala Lumpur International Airport which serves long haul international flights globally. To reach Iskandar Puteri, take public bus (A1, 207, 333) from the airport to Larkin Sentral Terminal in Johor Bahru and change bus towards Gelang Patah (666, LM1) or towards Puteri Harbour International Ferry Terminal (IP) in Iskandar Puteri.

Due to the limited long-haul connections of Senai airport, many locals choose to fly from Singapore Changi Airport (SIN ^IATA) across the border in Singapore instead. The downside is that you will have to pass through customs and immigration twice, and there are no direct public transportation connections between Changi Airport and Iskandar Puteri. This means that unless you want to spend a very long time on public transport and make multiple transfers, you will have to arrange for your own transportation in advance.

The city doesn't have any train station. However, the nearest train stations are Kempas Baru and JB Sentral stations in the neighboring Johor Bahru.

If coming from Johor Bahru city, take Pasir Gudang Highway westward and follow to Second Link Expressway westward for paid road. For non-paid road, take Sultan Iskandar Highway westward, Skudai-Gelang Patah Road southwestward or Sutera Danga Road southwestward. If coming from Pontian District, take Tanjung Kupang Road southeastward.

If coming from other states on the West Coast of Peninsular Malaysia, take the North–South Expressway Southern Route southward and change to Second Link Expressway southward. If you're coming from the East Coast, you'll have to drive down to Johor Bahru and continue from there. Iskandar Puteri is not connected by land to East Malaysia, thus if you are coming from the area, please take flight first to Kuala Lumpur International Airport or Senai International Airport and continue the journey by land.

The Second Link (Linkedua) connects Tuas in Singapore with the Kompleks Sultan Abu Bakar in Tanjung Kupang. Tolls are charged on both the Malaysian and Singaporean side for crossing the border. No visa-on-arrival is available at the border crossing, so if required for your nationality, make sure your Malaysian visa is in order before doing so.

Going to Iskandar Puteri from Singapore uses the 🌍 Malaysia–Singapore Second Link. Going from Singapore to Iskandar Puteri by public transportation, without resorting to taxi or e-hailing on at least part of the trip, may take a few hours considering the traffic in the 2nd Link and the time to commute inside Singapore to Jurong East or Boon Lay.

Buses CW3 and CW4 from Jurong East Bus Interchange, as well as bus CW6 from Boon Lay MRT, pass through the CIQ 2nd Link (immigration facilities) in Malaysia. From the CIQ 2nd Link, you can take the CW7L bus to Legoland Malaysia, or alternatively, the JPO2 bus that goes to Legoland and Puteri Harbour. From Puteri Harbour you can walk or take a taxi to Kota Iskandar. The JPO2 bus is very infrequent (it only runs 4 times per day in each direction), so you should familiarise yourself with the schedule if planning to go anywhere in Iskandar Puteri outside of Legoland Malaysia) or use taxi or e-hailing as an alternative to move between Iskandar Puteri and the CIQ 2nd Link.

However, if you are staying in the northern part of Singapore, it is probably more convenient to go to Iskandar Puteri via Johor Bahru.

Iskandar Puteri can be reached by ferry from Batam in Indonesia arriving at 🌍 Puteri Harbour International Ferry Terminal in Puteri Harbour. As of June 2022, the only operator on the route is Dolphin with 4 ferries daily, RM 69/114 one-way/return.

Most of the parking lots in public places have lot for those with mobility disability.

Petrol stations are relatively easy to find in the city. There are generally three types of fuel: RON95, RON97 and diesel. By law, foreign-registered cars (irrespective of the driver's nationality) may use RON97 fuel only.

Most of the areas of Iskandar Puteri are flat plains with no major steep hills, making it relatively easy to cycle. There are clearly marked bicycle paths which circle around Medini Iskandar and Sunway Iskandar. Due to the nature of driving habits in Malaysia which is sometimes unpredictable, it is always best to always give away first to other vehicle when you are riding bicycles.

Due to its sheer size, Iskandar Puteri houses several suburbs which are pedestrian friendly. Kota Iskandar can be explored by foot which houses the government buildings of Johor State Government and also connected to the seafront recreation area Puteri Harbour with cafes and restaurants. Medini Iskandar area around Legoland Malaysia are pedestrian friendly with well-built pavements connecting to Mall of Medini and surrounding facilities.

Taman Sutera is another residential area with Sutera Mall as the major attraction and surrounded by a shopping mall and various dining venues, nightlife and entertainment outlets which can easily be accessed by foot.

The city houses several urban parks where people can enter for free for their leisure activities. Due to the hot climate of the country, most of the people visit the parks only during morning or late afternoon time when air is not that hot. Almost all of the parks have adequate parking lots for private vehicles.

The Legoland Malaysia complex, consisting of three separate parks, is by far the top attraction in the region. (Especially since Sanrio Hello Kitty Town closed in 2020.) Most hotels in the area operate shuttles to the park, and from Johor Bahru it is also possible to use the LM1 and SL1 public buses. One day-tickets start from RM189/149 adult/child for the Theme Park, although discounted tickets are often available from third-party booking sites and combo tickets covering multiple parks can be good value.
