Bandar Dato’ Onn

Bandar Dato’ Onn is a 1,474-acre integrated township development by JLand Group (JLG), emerging as one of the most comprehensive and future-ready urban communities in southern Malaysia.

Located approximately 15 kilometres from Johor Bahru city centre, the township has been under development since 2007, with ongoing phases extending the masterplan towards 2040–2041.

Master-planned by Broadway Malyan and localised by APUDG, Bandar Dato’ Onn is built around the guiding principle of “wellness for all,” placing equal importance on physical, mental, and social wellbeing. The township’s layout integrates green and blue networks that link parks, open spaces, and neighbourhood centres, encouraging walking and cycling within a safe, accessible setting.

The development offers a diverse mix of residential typologies, including landed homes, high-rise apartments, and commercial components. This variety allows the township to cater to families, professionals, multi-generational households, and investors seeking different living formats.
Lifestyle convenience is a defining feature. A “15-minute city” lifestyle is promoted through central parks, jogging tracks, and a well-connected pedestrian network. A dedicated community complex supports communal wellbeing. Religious and cultural anchors, such as the Sultan Iskandar Mosque, further strengthen the township’s sense of identity and inclusivity.

Connectivity is another key strength. Bandar Dato’ Onn is linked to Johor Bahru’s wider road network, enabling efficient travel to the city centre, Senai International Airport, and cross-border gateways, positioning the township as a strategic hub within the Iskandar Malaysia growth corridor.

In the long term, Bandar Dato’ Onn will benefit from its long-term phased development, diversified land use, and established catchment.

The project won Best Township Development (Malaysia), Best Mega Township Development, and Best Connected Township Development at the 12th PropertyGuru Asia Awards Malaysia with iProperty. It also won Best Township Development (Asia) at the 2025 PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards Grand Final.
