  • Singapore has completed two-thirds of the work for the JB-Singapore light rail system that will be the third land link with Malaysia. The prime ministers from both countries met on Jan 11 to mark the placement of a span that connects the marine viaduct on both sides. Acting Transport Minister Chee Hong Tat said the next phase will see the completion of civil works and rail testing. Rebecca Metteo reports from Johor.

    There is a burning question begging to be ask though. After the mrt is finished and start running will johore and aingapore still be liveable by then? There will be swarms of humans everywhere in these two places. Also will sg property renting market be finish as well? The Malaysians if they can go home after work they wont stay in Singapore anymore. That will be hai lut for many landlords by then.

      It should be great in my opinion. Singapore businesses can use the ample land that Johor has and Johor can benefit from these foreign investments. It will also make it easier for Singapore to attract cheap labor without people residing in Singapore & at a time when the birth rate is so low it can continue to make the economy function. There is going to be a property bubble involved but I would argue that productivity will increase significantly with this project, which might lead to higher wages. I don't like the KL-Singapore HSR project instead. I highly doubt it will create a lot of business investments. The sector that will gain the most is the tourism sector but the tourism sector is low paying jobs & large scale tourism usually leads to property price appreciation. The KL-Singapore HSR should be banned.

    Clearly benefits MY more than SG. Watch many jobs & biz move to JB & Singaporeans going there to shop & eat instead especially when the passport thing is done. Also many more criminals will be able to enter Singapore... all i see is SG security cost & job losses going up yet SG is paying for majority of this project.

    Singapore govt is closing and consolisating alot of schools. And this RTS going to move 10k pax per hour in and out of Singapore. Are Singapore preparing for a bigger population in the next 10 years ? Esp. There are projected sharp rises of older Singaporeans and drop of birth rates, the only way to continue growing economy is to bring in more foreign talents. This could be bad news for Msian biz as they will find it more difficult to hire the best locals to work there. Smart move for SG. With so many foreigners living in SG, the enemies will need to think twice to bomb Singapore without repercussion from international attention. Every chicken legs our govt give out, the govt has the plan to bring back whole chicken. Johor will help to entice from inland Msians esp. KL and east Msia to come to live in JB and work in SG.

    Singapore take 60% of the cost.... can la. As long... its complete... it run smooth, and who knows, the track continues in malaysia, connects to more parts in future, and that will definitely boost more tourist to the two countries. Woohoo... can't wait.

    • @pohmoh3590
      @pohmoh3590 8 місяців тому +1

      Reason why Singapore take higher 60% cost bcos of our higher land cost and construction cost for our part of RTS.

But Malaysia needs Singapore because Malaysia's economy is struggling a bit, it needs the help and support of a rich and prosperous country like Singapore to keep its morals high.
