Sinkieland also have, what's more smaller area than Indonesia.

Better stay in JB, Melaka, and some say Penang.

In fact, last year I saw one in MY.
I saw a few police around a car while we were clearing sg woodlands custom.
When I drove past the car, I saw a young man on the passenger seat, the face had many spots, a scary sight.

Let wait for what will happen to Sentral after RTS starts.

Waiting for Grab would be lesser people at Sentral as the RTS ends at Bukit Chagar RTS Station. So terminal station will have a Taxi Stand.

Yea, still early, wait till end of 2025 then how the situation.
Btw Taxi stand for what? Should be Grab stand

I still rem when I'm at Aeon Tebrau (the so call taxi stand, where many taxi park there). I tell them I going to CIQ, no body interested, then one of the driver say: traffic jam at this hour, ok lah I drive you, RM30. I have no choice but to agree lol. At that time only taxi. Usual price I think is about RM15-20. Can't rem liao.

Think I've shared before that I started using Grab in JB, not even in SG.

That KSL KFC stand that's just across from Ming Ann now. Wanted to go to Pelangi pasar malam. First cab quoted RM12, second one $20. Grabbed RM5

Aeon Tebrau I used to go to the taxi tent that's at their road entrance gate. That's before my Grab days too.

Nowadays seeing how those cabs drive into the Grab pickup point at Komtar JBCC Jalan Wong Ah Fook looking for passengers...

It gives a very good idea who to approach for help in times of need using face reading like someone with high eye brows and thick lips… no wonder I always kenna approached by strangers for help… so they use the face reading features…

They are suppose to be one of the tops liao. They started the 999.9 gold jewelry trend and now HK most 金舖 only does it in 999.9 gold.

Elsewhere MY and SG is 999.

But I dun like to buy those very elaborate designs. U end up paying very high '手工费'

Poh Heng workmanship is very high.

The RTS can apparently ferry up to 10K passengers per hours in each direction. However, the estimate is about 40K passengers per day. Assuming 20K of these used to be from the JB CIQ building, you kind of have an additional 20K pax to compete taking grab with you. This is assuming everyone takes a grab .. so this is just a hyperbole lah.

Overall, it should be a good thing for the economy of JB which begets the question, is it a good thing for Singapore to have JB huat ? In an idealistic selfish manner, they should huat but not too much otherwise SGD is pointless there.

You mean everyday got 40,000 to JB? Serious bo? haha! Got so many hotels meh. lol!

RTS to JB to catch more affordable transport means up north?

Me is #笑里藏刀

Even more deadly now that I got my John Wick pencil, the FN2 by stabbylabs


Wah lau eh, my bas stop got 3 services, CW3, 3L and 6 and this late morning just waited 1 hour for the bus, first time. So far I've only waited 10mins.

I have been paying slight notice to that route when I took the T33 route.

Poh Heng workmanship is very high.

Bought from them decades ago.

That time their designs were simple MY/SG style.

Nowadays the Chinese / HK style designs e.g elaborate intricate 龍鳳镯 styling can also get from SK or other retailers.

MY Poh Kong the last I went is still those very old school simple designs.

Oh .. I didn't see it that way. I actually thought the seniors who go to JB on foot and lugging luggages are the ones who has the luxury of time and energy looking for cheap thrills and it's just another activity for them to hang out with friends and past time like my parents do.

My Dad and his JB kakis wouldn't even entertain a JB eatery without AC... lol , so they are the kind who are happy with just hanging out at Citysquare lah (but yet will get calculative at spending 500% more to go second link, go figure... lol) Whereas I'm happier and jumping for joy at the discovery of a delicious RM3 Roti Telur at Gelang Patah.

In a very ironic way, the ones who can brave JB customs are actually the ones with the luxury of time, physical and mental energy to do so. I think the seniors who are really struggling probably won't have that sort of energy in them given their environmental circumstances. I thought most Sinkie seniors I've seen crossing the JB custom can walk faster than me... . Lol

Some of these elderly probably own multiple properties in sg. It is unlikely the poorer elderly would go jb as they would rather stay at home to save on cost.

We don't need to worry about them. Probably they are worried about us not saving enough for retirement, always going jb and only think about enjoying ourselves.
