If use car, it will be Tuas cos I always clear the checkpoint within 10 minutes on each side.

If use bus, it will be Woodlands because got more frequency of buses and I can just walk over to City square to eat good food.

I rather use a styrofoam box cover my head... 

Slowly swim across the straits....

Probably reach the other coast faster

No wonder I can't get a styrofoam box when recently I asked the friendly neighbourhood provision shop staff for one, these usually came with delivery of veggies/fruits, they told me clean good styrofoam box always gone before they have a chance to dispose, but paper carton box alot ..... me only want to store frozen stuff when go grocery shopping, not swimming hor...:D

After returning from China, I went straight to CIQ to see for myself the situation on the ground.

Over the past week, I have received many reports regarding the congestion problem occurring at CIQ caused by:-

1. The problem of M-Bike system interference in both entry and exit motorcycle inspection zone routes.
2. The server caught fire causing the e-gate system to malfunction.
3. Due to items 1 and 2, immigration officers had to be deployed to the manual M-Bike counters causing the car counters to lack officers.

I have contacted and exchanged views with YB Minister of Home Affairs and God willing the issues at both CIQ BSI and KSAB will be resolved soon.

May all affairs be simplified.

God bless the Sultan
God bless Johor

I see vast improvement in Johor CIQ clearance in recent 1 year. Kudos to the CM.  Last time, all wayang but this guy seems to be really fixing things.

yes much improved, even during super peak like the recent first 2 days of this week sch holidays the clearance in fact was relatively quite faster. Prior to this would easily take 5 to 7hrs.

It seems so... Singapore side said cleared 495,000 cars on first day 8 Mar but only jam 3 hours... that's like amazing no? I went in on 11 Mar, crossed Singapore side at 5.30 am, no queue to enter Malaysia, but could see it building steadily and the queue for entry to Singapore from Malaysia was getting very long.... once I entered Secondlink to the Malaysia customs, short queue cos only one lane of booths open... this was like 5.45 am or so... kind of drove through still cos all the booths in this lane were open... could see the other sections all open and ready to get into action... so far so good...
