Sr Khaidzir A. Rasip   FRISM FRICS Managing Director, Ian Scott International (M) Sdn Bhd       Rome wasn’t built in a day. To establish a metropolis of international standing that is both strong and sustainable takes a lot of mettle. In a short span of 15 years, this region has already been transformed beyond expectations. As a local who grew up here, it’s surreal to see my childhood dreams finally came true. As a grownup professional who spent parts of my career life here, it’s self-fulfilling to know that I have had played some role in shaping this transformation. Within IRDA and without. There’s no doubt in my mind Iskandar Malaysia will one day crystallised into the vision that has been encapsulated into its blueprint from inception, etching its name into the nation’s history book as one of the success stories for generations to come. Well done to everyone concern and I look forward to the most grandiose celebration of all the 20th anniversary and the coming of age of Malaysia’s gleaming new metropolis!
