Laura asks…
Johor Bahru Immigration, where to reboard the bus if u came from
Singapore?
After crossing causeway and clearing M’sia custom, where do I reboard the bus? I need to go
Larkin and end up cannot find my bus, took a cab.
The bus is supposed to wait at the other side of the custom, but all I see is the underpass, no
bus-stops.
Kaki Cuti Cuti Malaysia answers:
The buses often leave before you get through immigration. We went through this border
crossing and took about one and a half hours to go through the foreigners lane at immigration-
the Malaysians and Singaporeans went through within minutes and our bus left without us –
other foreigners on the bus found another bus by the same company and it let us all hop on at
no charge to take us the rest of the way.

2. Lisa asks…
I will be in Johor Bahru with my family on 18 Dec 2009 and we plan
to go to Singapore.?
Could anybody tell me what is the cheapest means of transport to got to Singapore and how /
where to get it? And could you recommend the most economic accommodation in Singapore?
Thanks.
Kaki Cuti Cuti Malaysia answers:
After clearing johor bahru custom, just follow the sign that will lead you to take public transport
to singapore (eg to kranji or to jurong east), you cant get lost. If you take the bus to kranji, will
lead you straight to Kranji MRT station. From there, you just take the mrt to lead you where you
want to go in Singapore. Most cheapest and easy ride

4. I’m living in Singapore and thinking of moving to Johor bahru?
I hear such terrible things from Singaporeans about Johor, but some Malaysia who live there
say its not that bad. What is the real story. I’m American so a little crime doesn’t bother me to
much but I have two small kids and a wife to worry about. Singapore is EXPENSIVE!! and its
killing me slowly. I need to move somewhere cheaper but close to Singapore as my wife is a
Singaporean. I don’t want to take her to far from her family because they’re really close. So….
how bad is Johor Bahru????
Kaki Cuti Cuti Malaysia answers:
Singapore is EXPENSIVE depending how you live…
A 2+1 HDB flat rental will cost around/min SGD1.3k (depending on area)
Local dinner at local coffee shop for a family of 4 will cost around SGD12 to SGD15
Electricity and water cost around SGD200 a month
Transportation is good as long you have good money… T.T
Minimum spending is around 4k per month for normal local family
Option 01:
Considering JB
Your wife a Singaporean, It be over her dead body if you wanna get her to live in JB.
Transportation is always good in JB as long as you have a car.
Food are cheap and nice, sometimes too nice, you will spend more than in SG
Option 02:
Ask you wife to get a JOB and have her FAMILY look after your children.
Singapore girl always think that they don’t need to work as long as they married an Caucasian.
With 2 income per family and minimal your spending, at least you will die slower…try to get used
to local life style and act like an local “Uncle”…you’ll survive
Crime rate in SG are no better than JB. They just go “unreported” in the news…and later
selected few to be documented in “Crime Watch” and broad cast on CH5. Singaporean always
say JB danger cannot go la…but every weekend Singapore cars jammed the Causeway.
Singapore “Auntie”s flocked the checkpoints and bazaars and Singapore guys sleep in JB
hotels.
P.s RM240k is lesser than SGD100k. You can easily buy a nice Bungalow or 2 condo near JB
with the price of a 3 room flat. Single storey terrace house around Gelang Patah cost around
4/6

5. RM90k – RM110k. JB house are cheap even if you compare it within the State of Johor itself.
Lizzie asks…
Any regular traveller to Malaysia from Singapore?
I was wondering can i use my Singapore nokia handphone charger in Malaysia hotel directly?
(penang especially).
Is the voltage and power same?
If not, what do i need and can i get from hotel. Thanks!
BTW do u know the coach price from Penang to Singapore or Johor Bahru. :=)
Kaki Cuti Cuti Malaysia answers:
The voltage is the same, and the plug points are identical as well.
I believe there is a very comfortable coach service operated by Plusliner (www.plusliner.com)
direct from Penang island into Singapore and I believe the price is below RM 150.
The website I gave you above would have the coach fare and the coach schedule as well.
