once fc1 starts going in service, forest city will have tourists and others filled as it was called to have no one going there also lots of weeds have grown there due to lack of people
Honestly ah,
The provision of a regular bus service would provide much convenience to travel to and fro Forest City via public transport – which is currently non-existent, even private hire also don’t want to go there.
However,
With other shopping malls in Johor Bahru, such as Mid Valley South Key, KSL, Bukit Indah, JB Sentral, nobody would go to forest city to shop, unless got a unique anchor tenant at forest city.
The only visitors to forest city would be those who want to go there to take pictures of the beautiful sceneries in forest city.
Nonetheless,
The provision of this bus service would help to rescue forest city, although to say the truth, the effectiveness would be quite limited.
Forest City macam ghost city.
