Forest City: Inside Malaysia's Chinese-built 'ghost city'
6 months ago

China's largest property developer Country Garden unveiled Forest City - a $100bn (£78.9bn) mega-project - in 2016.
In Malaysia, Country Garden's plan was to build an eco-friendly metropolis featuring a golf course, waterpark, offices, bars and restaurants. The company said Forest City would eventually be home to nearly one million people.
Eight years on, only 15% of the project has been built and, according to recent estimates, just over 1% of the total development is occupied.
Despite facing debts of nearly $200bn, Country Garden told the BBC it is "optimistic" the full plan will be completed.
