Today my friend didn't expect very low traffic driving into JB till she had problems logging into MyNIISE when nearing JB CIQ to get Group QR.

Fortunately her son took a picture before leaving home, & she used that.

Step up security liao, most likely cannot smuggle KFC and bak kwa already.
Looks like the human Q and traffic would be slower at both Woodlands and Tuas.

My son just got his passport, and I wanted to update the MyNIISE group but keep hang at the scan document page under add member. Anyone facing same issue? I tried with wifi and 4G, both cannot.

Just to share, I found a work around to this issue. My app always hang when I click add group members and select scan identification document, aka the passport. So I downloaded the app on my iPad and created a new MyNIISE account for my son with an alternate email address but with my mobile number. After that, I can add him into my group on my iPhone MyNIISE app by scanning his digital travel credential on the iPad MyNIISE app instead of his passport.

Scan Passport or MyNIISe QR at the new E-Gates

For the first time in my 1.5 years chiong via Tuas on foot, yesterday (sunday) was the first time where almost everyone had their bag checked causing huge jam at custom. A 1 hour 15 mins trip door to door became almost 2.5 hours

But the experience was still smooth overall as the human jam kept moving instead of getting stuck.

There were a lot of tour buses though but can't tell if sinkies or not.. lol

Can hear them mah, especially the loud ones from you-know-where. Then the odd foreign languages...

Otherwise would be our uncle auntie tour groups, or younger ones back from the likes of KL, or the heroes back from JB shopping.

Those talk loudly and blocking the way - country start with a letter C
Black - India
About of half of them wear very thin jack look like raincoat - Taiwan or HK
The rest not so easy unless you go near them.

Backpack that looks like there's some sort of interesting stuff inside, why not?

Once I sway sway encountered 2 groups from different areas, let's just say internationally known to bring 'treasures'. They made every single one of us queue for scanning, regardless big or small bags. After that I became more alert to siam them...

Something inconvenient, but necessary.

This month is the time to visit evening Ramadan markets all over Malaysia. I hope to find time to visit the ones at Plaza Angsana and Perling Mall in JB. There is one outside the Giant of Southern City which I have never visited. Further, I enjoyed Ramadan markets in Malacca and also Kulai.

Causeway Link's facebook post has happily provided a bus guide to Ramadan Bazaars in JB.
