QUOTE(mac_mac21 @ Sep 2 2025, 09:13 AM) We should have ETS until Singapore since KTM last station is there ETS would end at JB Sentral where RTS is nearby. KTM woodland is not connected to any MRT. But it should be continued to serve other needs cos RTS can only serve 10k/hour.

QUOTE(vhs @ Sep 2 2025, 11:53 AM) KTM no longer has any station in Singapore since Najib PM time, no? Now the last stop is at JB center, integrated with immigration. And then there is an hourly train going to Singapore immigration located at Woodland. Outside the Singapore immigration there is a bus stop with lots of buses which can fetch you to various MRT stations in Singapore, all accepting Malaysia credit cards for fare payment. QUOTE(jojolicia @ Sep 2 2025, 11:59 AM) That sg immi train station (at woodlands) will soon be demolished once the Shutter Tebrau ceased operation after RTS in operation. I hope Shutter Tebrau would continue as an alternative cos 10k commuters /hour for RTS might not be ideal during peak time.

QUOTE(30624770 @ Sep 2 2025, 05:15 PM) Compared to China’s HSR or Japanese Shinkansen, it’s about 1/2 of their speed but compared to other countries without high speed rails including US, the speed is actually commendable as it’s the same speed as US highest speed trains. Yes it will be travelling faster than the highway speed of 110kmh. ETS should be sufficient, money saved from HSR can be used for 2nd/3rd MRT link to SG, transport network in JB n those ETS station towns. MY future economy now depends on the success of JSSEZ.
