Metropolitan planning is complex especially in countries experiencing rapid urbanisation and fast economic growth. Malaysia is one of the emerging developing nations with the vision to attain developed nation by year 2020. Several development corridors are proposed to facilitate a more orderly urbanisation and sustainable development. One of the fastest development corridors is Iskandar Malaysia which is located in the southern part of Peninsular Malaysia. This program will use the case of Iskandar Malaysia as a model to analyse issues and policy strategies adopted in the master plan.
