A robust Industrialised Building System (IBS) industry is being set up to support the Forest City development in Johor to ensure the multi-billion ringgit project is completed faster while providing thousands of jobs for locals.“IBS is all about prefabrication that can speed up construction and the quality is assured. The first phase of the IBS factory will start production soon and expect it will not be enough. Our company will embark on Phase Two of the IBS plant.Incorporating technology from Germany, Italy and China, the IBS facility would comprise four factories and they would be the biggest in the world when fully completed.Initially, (production) will be just for Forest City. But in the future, if there is demand elsewhere, for example, for affordable houses, deals can be set up.We have more than 75 per cent of the workers are locals.“Forest City is a catalyst project. It will provide employment opportunities for up to 220,000 people. This is not a figure we just pluck out of thin air, (but) from a well-known international consultant. We believe it could be more than that.
