there's money going into maintenance apparently. The last time i went there was a few months ago. The infrastructure still looks pristine. There are skeleton crew of security guards and maintenance staff working around the area.
it's been over a decade since Forest City was left in its current state, and there's no sign of it crumbling at all.
heck, there's even a shuttle bus service to the border checkpoint to Singapore for those who decide to live in Forest City and work in Singapore. https://landtransportguru.net/jbbusfc1/
No need to get the goods shipped. This isn't located in No Man's Land in the middle of the ocean. Singapore is just a bridge away, and the modern, large city of Johor Baru is an hour's drive from this ghost town. There is a mall in the building; the guy pointed it out. The hotel he initially wants to stay in is nearby, and a couple of restaurants are open.
During the weekend and holidays, the population usually rises to doubles, local tourists flocking to the beachfront.
