how about for those travelling from Batu Kawan to Bayan Lepas? at what time should they leave house to office?

I think traffic in that direction is generally not an issue. Once you hit the on ramp to the 2nd bridge, it's smooth sailing until you reach the industrial zone. Crossing the bridge itself is about 15-20 minutes give or take.

Do you actually see this area before. All 4 way is major road. if no traffic light one side confirm more jam or more accident
*
no but sabah JKR once installed traffic lights at their busiest roundabouts
at peak hours it's great
but at non-peak hours, this thing is a waste of resources...many times u would see it being empty because all the cars already finish crossing and it still remain red on the other side laugh.gif
so at the end they scrapped it completely and let it free flow...the found out adding additional "susur tepi" lane makes more sense

but traffic light in roundabout still exist in sabah but nobody follows it because it makes no sense

How to retrench when it is expanding massively in Pg?!?!

Maybe it will give VSS for over-paid staff.

so far found 2 routes.
Either go via Airport route. 8km but shit tons if motor and traffic light.
Else the route can see the Sea view the 10km route, lesser motor.

Or i move to Pantai Jerjak / Summerton area. I stayed at OYO B Hotel before took me 10 mins to reach office.

or i leave home before 6.30am see whether can reach office. Provided if my stomach doesnt sakit perut on the way to office. 😂

Thats near the industrial area, mesti la jam. Traffic from mainland to work in island pun will go through that route. You could use the route that goes towards Bayan Baru area, near Giant. The easiest is use moto la.

well the office is nearby the end of Penang 2nd bridge.
Majority of the time wasted might be due to parents sending their kids to school around the SPICE area.

There are two routes:
(i) Airport route has shit tons of motors, shorter distance 8.2km. But has like 10 traffic lights. Needs JPJ to control traffic. Very hard to change lanes.

(ii) The route I shown 10km distance, majority of the time is stuck at SPICE to Bkt Jambul to the roundabout at Bayan Baru, afterwards smooth 10 min traffic to office.

from relau to intel why didnt you use the sunshine square then cut into the factory area there more nearer. i think you got stuck at the chinese school opposite SPICE. there is already a plan to construct overhead which from before the bukit jambul traffic light can go straight to near queensbay highway there.

Welp, most likely will move back down to KL after sometime. I kennot deal with this jam wasting 2 hours of my life everyday.

Moving to KL is not helping either.

You probably need to move to Kelantan/Terengganu or anywhere forest for that.

I dunno anything about semi-conductor.
Currently all I know is any company wanna buy chips must pay up front deposit plus 3 months advance in a binding 18 mths contract.
Immediately after delivery of 1st 3 months stock need to pay next 3 months stock in advance, and so forth.
No money no honey no talk!

Semiconductor industry has boom bust cycle like clockwork, and accordingly hiring and retrenchment like clockwork. In recent years only it got disrupted by Covid and war. Now, China, US, Europe all rushing to build their own fabs. Takes 2 years to bring online. Overcapacity in 2024 is an inevitability. High-end players maybe not affected as much but mid tier sure GG. Remember to save for a rainy day.
