Well, on the other hand, it is "just" a 5 to 6 hour drive from JB.
unless you drive ferrari or lamborghini and has traffic police clearing all traffic for you. otherwise is quite unlikely to reach penang in 6 hours time.
thot of buying a property there too, cos Penang is a nice place and the food is excellent, but the horrendous island traffic can even make saints evil, not to mention the time taken to get there from here.
I have rode and driven and finally decided the best way is the quick flight up north

Hmmm more like 12 hours in "normal" circumstances. But I did see a couple of SG plated cars in Penang once.

Yes flight would be the best. 1hour+ I believe. Airasia would stop in Senai in JB. SIA has a direct flight as well but of course at a premium. Don't be surprise about the house prices in Penang Island. Some can go up to a Mil RM if I'm not mistaken. There are also a lot of Korean, Japanese living there. Korean air has flights there straight from Seoul as well. Rumors also has it a lot of HK, Taiwanese movie, music stars have 2nd homes there as well.

Believe me, it has been done without the need of any ultimate driving machines or escort.
Agreed w u, provided ave speed is 120km/h - non stop.
rush for what? relax la
Pen can be reached in abt 8+ hours, with some stops along the way for cigs, makan and petrol.
heard the rumors too that some hongkie celebs have houses there...v wise decision.

Up to a million rm? Most sea facing condos are over one million. Sp setia launched a condo at Gurney drive with units starting from 2milion to 7millon for penthouse
No worries, Penang also has a vibrant economy thanks to the mnc plants and factories set up to take advantage of the FTZ and good, location, easy access to the sea
Yah, I actually worked in one those MNC many years ago. Its, not as "developed" as Singapore. But I kind of like the rustic feel of it. Many cheap and good food there as well. Hokkien, is a bit different, but people would be able to understand what you are saying, mostly.
i see. So you must be familiar with the property market in Penang - any good gem there? Yes in Penang, surprisingly the food consumer prices are falling way behind property prices.
Apartment living is starting to be the way to go.
normal JB-KL 3.5 hours, KL-penang 4hr+. about 8 hr non stop.
