Johor state in Malaysia has asked the federal government to investigate Network School, a private residential community founded by former Coinbase chief technology officer Balaji Srinivasan, according to BFM News. The request follows allegations that some Israeli citizens joined the project using third-country passports. State authorities have asked the Home Ministry and related enforcement and security agencies to verify the identities, nationalities, and entry purposes of the individuals involved. They also want to determine whether the project’s operations require registration or official approval under Malaysian law. In parallel, authorities plan to review whether the site complies with rules covering venue permits, building use, land use, accommodation operations, and commercial activities. Johor said legal action will be taken if any violations are found. Network School is located in Forest City, Malaysia, and is described as a private residential community built around Srinivasan’s “Network State” concept. Membership starts at $1,500 per month and includes lodging, meals, fitness facilities, and co-working services.
