I know what you mean. When I enter the toilets in Johor shopping centres, they are generally dirtier. The smell is stronger also. But it seems better than 5-10 years ago. I don't know if it's the low pay of the cleaners, or the culture of bo chup. This kind of thing is really about personal...

We welcome the good Chinese Malaysians to come migrate, work and start families in Singapore! :)

Huh??! What is this and where did you get the letter from? UEM is a well-known local developer. You mean they avoided rectifying defects in their condo project? How bad is it now?

Iskandar Residences on the left. Paradiso Nuova in front. The developments all look closer together than I thought. Let's hope it doesn't feel too cramped when they are all completed.

OK, seeing all the replies, with RTS nowhere in sight now, how do we resolve the jam issue at the causeway and 2nd link? Do you all think the situation will remain the same or improve?

Don't mind I kay poh and ask you which gym you go to? :)

Was this via Tuas 2nd Link or Causeway? Those who mentioned jam at causeway, have you also tried Tuas 2nd Link or is it too far for you?

Hmm, yes. It's the developers (Eg Country Garden) who overemphasised RTS as a reason to buy properties in JB. And not because to attract more Singaporeans to buy properties in Iskandar, the RTS will be built. So far, there isn't a transparent breakdown of where the billions of RM investment are...

Yes, makes sense. Johor will rather spend more money on transportation for its larger group of people than the smaller portion of those who work in SG. Then I wonder, how on earth did the concept of "RTS" come about? Who suggested it in the first place? Sounds at first like it's been agreed...

I think on the Malaysian side, there is more convincing to be done on the building of the RTS? Even if it helps Malaysian workers travel faster every morning, how does that improve the economy of Johor? Can they recoup the cost of building the RTS? Can RTS attract more Singaporeans to buy...

Yes Buy! How to buy?

Eh... What's with this "hand chopping" thing? I've been reading quite often about it. You mean they literally use a parang and slice the arm into 2?!!! Yikes!!!! Wouldn't it be damn painful for the victim? Has this really occurred before in Johor or it's exaggerated?

No point predicting what will happen to FC. What they do there won't affect us. But I won't be surprised if it becomes a ghost town. It has happened in their own country. The Tiongs can come and go shopping by just taking a flight over. Then stay for a few days a year only. Some say they are...

Good thing the SG govt steps in before property market here becomes a bubble. But now it is still overheated. Don't think the cooling measures will be removed. It could become a norm for the greedy SG govt to collect taxes also. I just heard a friend say his friend's condo rental has dropped...

I show you a more modern version of empty shops. These pictures may have been posted before. How they survive I also dunno.... But somehow, they can. That's how Johor functions I suppose.

Huttons agent kept telling me it was a good investment to buy D'Inspire. Can get good rental income. Apparently, many Singaporeans submitted their cheques on the first day. The agent told me to do so also. I've just read from another forum many buyers are not happy with the final product...
