Woodlands MRT Station is not beside KTM station at Woodlands checkpoint.  Need to take a bus there.

KTM station in S'pore:
1) at Woodlands Checkpoint and immigration:
    bring all your luggage down, "chop" passport and board the train back.  Unless you plan to alight there.

2) KTM railway station at Tanjong Pagar.
    final stop for the KTM, alight here if you are going to town area.

Going to Suntec City from Tanjong Pagar KTM Railway station:
1) Walk to Tanjong Pagar MRT Station, 15-20mins, take MRT to City Hall - Not recommended.

2) Take SBS Transit bus no 10, at bus stop just outside the Railway station.  Alight at bus stop opposite Suntec City along Nicoll Highway.  If not sure, ask the bus driver to alert you when reach.  Bus fare by cash SGD 1.20.

3) Take SBS Transit, bus no 97, bus stop outside Railway station.  Alight at bus stop at Suntec Convention Centre, Temasek Boulevard, bus fare by cash SGD 1.20.  (97E, bus fare 1.70)

Good luck!

Big thx for the guide. I think i will take bus no.97 to suntec and back to Tanjong Pagar KTM station with bus 97 too...As i check from web, the bus 97 will stop at opposite of Tanjong Pagar KTM station if i take it to back from suntec. Do i able to walk cross the road to proceed to KTM station? Because google map show there is a car expressway between KTM station and the opposite bus stop. Just worry that i will miss the train if i want to back at the same day i come.

Hi, take bus no 196 from suntec city to Tanjong Pagar KTM station.

From Suntec, the bus stop is the one along Nicoll Highway.

At the railway station, alight at the bus stop at Cantonment Link. It's only about 6 or 7 stops from Suntec. The bus goes along Shenton Way, when it moves to the right lane close to the traffic light, it's time to get ready to alight(bus stop is immediately after the right turn). I'm sure you can Google Map and see,. Also, Google for SBS Transit and see the bus route.


Added on November 17, 2009, 10:54 pmI just had a look at the web provided by vkeong. Wow, same as I suggested, bus no 196...

Im going Singapore with my family this Holiday. I've once saw on TV about some cool fan clubs/merchandise shops and something similar like that in the US. So i think Singapore might as well have places like that that i can visit?!?!? Im a big fan of Rock/Punk-Rock music, so i'll probably be looking for places which are related to bands like Linkin Park, Coldplay, Paramore, Greenday, The All American Rejects,Avril Lavigne and all that. I hope you get what im trying to find, please provide me details about the places....please!! And no, not pubs or disco, and also, not Singaporean artists!! By the way, anywhere in Singapore got sell cap ayam T-shirts/posters of band/singers?? icon_question.gif icon_question.gif

I'm going down to singapore on dec 12 to fetch my bro from changi airport (he's coming back from US and stopping in changi. Flight arriving midnight). Planning to go down from KL in the morning and go jalan jalan awhile.

Question is, since it's been awhile since i been in singapore (the last time i was there was almost 10 years ago) i thought of just driving down using the 2nd link and then park my car somewhere near a MRT station and use the MRT to go around. Any advice on where to go once i pass the 2nd link checkpoint? Also, from second link to changi, do i need to get those ERP tags or something (watch from movie that to drive in singapore need to get those tag thing). Frankly, i'm quite a noob about this... If only the ticket back to Malaysian doesn't cost an extra USD 400... a

Can any1 recommend me any accommodations near to the Suntec Convention Center?

I found out Hotel 81 in Bugis is quite nice, but just the price is slightly high during Friday & Weekend.

Possible to find any Hotels where the room rate is around SGD100 per day?
