This paper presents the projecting or forecasting of water demand for the Johor River Basin (JRB) from the year 2020 up to 2050. The aim for this research is to quantify and analyse the demand for water in the future from each sector which is most crucial around JRB such as domestic/residential, industrial, agriculture, livestock and non-revenue water; it is a key element for water demand quantification for JRB. Recent work for this quantification is more generalizing in terms of water demand as a whole in Johor state. Meanwhile, this research are using composite approaches which involve secondary data from various local authorities and involved four different districts only around JRB. This research also covers the scope of water consumption baseline data and information of JRB with the recent report. It appears that quality of data in terms of availability and reliability is very important and must be dealt with carefully, with good judgement and good engagement with local stakeholders or authorities when it comes to decision making, therefore must be able to get a rapid and simple understanding of water demand for JRB. It is significant to this research which to accommodate with United Nations Development Program and also promote greater awareness of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG-6) which to ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.
