Beribu ribu tahniah!

Typical Msian (ok vendor salah) incompetence (this time with VEP) results in empty Johor streets.

Note: Sg top investor in Msia and source of tourism revenue.

Johor businesses should start focusing on locals then.

like we give a shit on sellers with tourists as their main market.

Pemerintah Sg takes a different approach 2 vendors. They will take ownership and guide or penalize vendors.

Anthony better think how to answer to YDPA and Johorian

syukur causeway clear for the first time

good job

Like Singaporeans care about the 15cents difference.

Good more Malaysian driver.hahha

MCO kek

This.....i happily drive today........tq Anthony Loke.

To all shops who focus on tourist and foreigners...Padan mukak......

Hello! Singkie tourists pump 30+ RM to 40+RM billion into Msia economy each year. Thats not including their investments.

They leave, Msia economy tanks.

Now singaporkean will behave

just as planned to control money outflow to johor

Bayat dulu saman...baru masuk Johor

They dont come Johor, we just cut water, supply we cut power grid...settle ma

Why nak takut dengan orang asing.

No need......its a good thing......Johor is safer without road hooligans from SG.

And where did you get that statistics? Source?

short term hiccup for long term benefits bah.
Yes they should implement it better and seamless.

I can attest to that. Just got my VEP activated yesterday. Applied in March 2024. Newspaper said less 20% traffic. Would be more than 70%. Now at Bukit Indah Oriental Cafe with only 3 mins waiting. Usually wait long long.
Warga /k should be happy, as no more SG plate come and 'steal' their hak kami RON97.

Correct correct. Almost everything so expensive by miles compare to melaka jonker walk

lel
next time tell the tourism minister to remove all sg visitor from their report card.
In no time this country tourism become top 3 country (from behind)

Leave to? Hahahah

are you implying that business made for local cant attract tourists?'
tourist trap doesnt give much benefit to the locals, its only enriched the business owners.

Aiyah short term pain only lah. It will be back to normal soon. Where else can they get a nice cosy meal for SGD10, cheap massage haircut dental pharmacy Ron95.

cukur less sinki swarming their cars here

they are using their money in exchange of goods and services,not like they give us buta2.
kena extra ruling also kecoh macam dunia nak kiamat. i really sokong abang loke on this, they really think everything need to favors them meh?

Many places:

Thanks to the Sgd. Always remember: Msia to Sinkie is a "convenience".

Kiasu is like that one, inside own country, they behave well, once go outside, especially next door, all their good mannerisms out the window.

Mostly those refrain to go to JB now are those violated many Malaysian laws, especially traffic offences with unpaid tickets.
So they don't want to be identified and to pay them.
Singkies go to Msia like hooligans.

The power of 3x...

Next time walk and use public transport

See yourself

Weekday la

And also strong ringgit. See, told u PMX and DAP

Only 3 kali ganda kah.......??

I earn in GBP lah..........

Lol. johor will tank but i don't think the rest of states will. mostly accomodate local spend

Kesian. UK is the new msia

Ask pay summons all kecut.

Dumb is real
Another hamas wannaba that think invincible.
Cry father cry mother when repercussions arrive

You guys should take a look at SG papers and radio. All bashing Malaysian gov incompetence in this VEP implementation. Johor MB also turun padang but at the end is Anthony Loke salah

Suruh bayar saman dulu, sudah kecut telur....

Kito sudah menang.




Ohhh yeah.

Yes. Maybe SG mums & dads also still having their PSLE..

From one Maiar to another:

I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the Flame of Anor. The dark fire will not avail you, Flame of Udun! Go back to the shadow. You shall cannot pass!!!!!

“You shall not pass” was actually a blooper. JRR Tolkien originally penned the phrase to read “You cannot pass”.

Yes, I’m a Nerd of the Ring.

Some of those dumb people never drive into SG before and just bash cause of 3x or red eye.

In Woodland and Tuas(2nd link) AFTER Malaysia side immigration prior to enter neutral border. There is a mini auto stop that capture the car plate. If want to capture SG plate outstanding summons can be done there. BUT problem is the data not updated.
So now using VEP to do the same thing but processing slow.

Never care..faggot sg the one cry...Malaysian can go anywhere...why Singapore bising much...they can go Aus la dey...they got money wut

Eventually masuk malaysia also la, in long run worth it

Be realistic on one capability. The ultimate ignorance is the rejection of something you know nothing about yet refuse to investigate.

On the serious note, singaporean do travel overseas more than malaysian due to strong currency.

Curious though, I have once had an sg customer family come eat.

I guess they traveled to ipoh and back, at night stop at my place

Can eat quite a lot 3 person eat around 6-7 pax bkt. Then gave me rm100 and told me to keep the change coz sedap. Quite polite though... maybe I was lucky?

Stupid. Want to impose rules but lack commitment pulak..kena mock by sinkapore

U r right..stingy singaporean cant pay rm20 to enter. Want to come msia spend like king..puik. btw, how much we have to pay to enter singapore?

Kiasu

yea right, as we didnt have enough of people talking behind our back.
time given for them to install those VEP were for years, bila dah bagi clear dateline said sure uturn wan, delay wan. lel expecting people to answer to their email enquiries, so lazy to go office meh? when alot of registration came in short period of time, sure la there will be long delivery time and larger occurrence for mistakes to be made. Wahh we should symphatize on last minute people? sure sure, we must take care of them good2 because they rich.

They could only handle 100 online booked interview only, no walk in.

Not all Singaporean are kiasu, just minority of them are.

Usually you can spot kiasu when they are shaking their car at petrol station at JB.

Same like rempit, rempit does not represent the average Malaysian.

Malaysia enforcement with their tidak apa attitude..how sinkapork wanna respect them? Kejap denda kejap warning

and if still dont come over, fire homemade lokets? fafo?

Its ok.....still X6.....

where is the repercussion? dont see anyone crying also.........

malu aje .....wks mca

eh oh wai wrong party

Yes, it is not like VEP was announced a month ago or something. It was announced years ago but none of them took action to get it done. Why? Because it's malaysia ma .. always uturn, so why bother going through the hassle, right? Now complain this complain that. Don't come over la. Let the local businesses that target on them die .. to let these people know that they should cater for locals not foreigners.

Anyway, it seems like you don't need a VEP to enter malaysia anyway: https://www.channelnewsasia.com/asia/malays...%20six%20months.

KPI achievement unLoke

I foresee jpj will stop giving warnings too. it's too disruptive to the Johor economy.

Lol denial

They never even check no scan RFID, it’s just like it never happened lol.

it is a win-win for both parties. tarak suka, can fly out to exotic locations like swiss

all MNC DC is coming soon in JB.. in fact its building in progress liao...
johor akan maju!!

Haha .. typical la .. why buat extra work when can gaji buta

Matter of time b4 Johor panics..

Save them!

https://www.todayonline.com/world/open-bord...ohor-businesses

Johor sudah maju. Oh wai-

terima kasih madani..
undi la madani untuk kemajuan negeri!!

This HAHAA

HAHAHA! You think the cheapskate Singaporeans who come Johor to pump cheap fuel and buy groceries got the money to travel overseas? What a joke. They don't come here also no problem, our economy don't need them!

I don't see a problem here.
I believe many sgporeans are law abiding citizens.
We're merely extending the enforcement on our side like they do on their side. Surely those with no fines has nothing to worry about, and we're merely weeding out the truants.

better work in mnc in penang ftz. food half price compared to jb cut neck

U try cut water supply to SG.... Then u know
Mersing plan

Leniency given to Singkie:

https://www.channelnewsasia.com/asia/malays...arnings-4656261

Bring on in the sweet sweet Sg dollar...

Now i can jemur my underwear outside without worrying my underwear will go missing kena curi by singkie underwear pervert.

SG gov berry happy, domestic consumption up by few points. Cukor

It's better to be self-sustaining than keep on relying on foreigners to boost the economy.

Be a self sustaining state lah, keep relying on sinkies. These shops with their harga yahudi tutup kedai better.

Where is the crying?

you tutup our air, we tutup clean water supply to johor.

meanwhile johor is actively making new LRA site and upgrading existing LRAs.

What? U think the reaction is stop supplying processed water.....
Naive dude

thats what those people in hwz forum said lol.they really think that we cant treat out own water.

Source from forum? Topkek

See what the minister say

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/sHkZHu74x7dBe1bf/

Mr #LeeKuanYew: “if PAS comes into power…and tries to meddle with the water in Johor Bahru, I’ll move my troops in. I will not wait for the Security Council to solve this little problem”
----------
Mr Lee’s words above were quoted by former MFA Permanent Secretary Bilahari Kausikan, in a speech he made in Cambridge, recently.

Bilahari points out the harsh realities of our foreign policy and Singapore’s vulnerable position in the region. He paid tribute to our founding leaders Lee Kuan Yew, Goh Keng Swee and S Rajaratnam whose steady hands helped navigate us through some turbulent and dangerous times in the early years.

For small nations, in Bilahari’s words, foreign policy is usually about a series of “not always neat or consistent improvisations to a messy and unpredictable reality’’.

Diplomacy is not all about being pleasant or making oneself agreeable. It’s about defending and advancing Singapore’s interests, preferably by being pleasant and agreeable but if necessary “by any appropriate means’’.

Idealism is important. But all idealism must be rooted in a hard-headed understanding of human nature and power. “Without power nothing can be achieved. And even with power not everything desirable will always be feasible.’’

In his speech, Bilahari recalled how our founding PM once told a former chief of the Malaysian Armed Force that “if PAS comes into power…and tries to meddle with the water in Johor Bahru, I’ll move my troops in. I will not wait for the Security Council to solve this little problem’’.

Singapore has done well in the five decades since independence. As a nation, we cannot be ordinary if we want to be relevant to the world.

He concluded by reminding Singapore that our external environment remains complicated, unstable and dangerous.

Bilahari’s speech is attached. It is worth reading.
