I mean, how many of you can genuinely say that you’ve never been to Singapore or do not have relatives or friends there? Not many of us can do that. :)

Malayan Railway is trying to make it easier for both sides to visit each other starting Monday, well, for Peninsula Malaysia and Singapore lah! East Malaysia still a bit difficult but at least the air space is opening up and we have more budget airlines flying there! Yay! So ya, back to KTM, have you heard the news? There’s a new train station right there at Danga City Mall in Johor Baru. Now we can all take a train from the mega-mall to Singapore in under 10 ringgit (this month lah!) and in 90 minutes, including clearing immigration checks! That’s a pretty good deal, especially since there’s a ban on walking on the Causeway bridge. :( Not that I’d want to walk there since it’s so polluted!
