    [/I] I would say I know of two dentists, one Dr Salmah binte Abdul Rahman operating at Klinik Pergigian Sal (33A Jalan Dedap) Tel: 073562971 and the other at Klinik Pergigian Shanghai, No. 8 A Jln Ros Merah 3/2 Taman Johor Jaya, Tel: 6073540430. I visited Dr Salmah to patch up a hole and...

    When we said we like the jam-free Causeway, it does not mean we are happy to pay the toll-hikes. There is no reason for paying other than to offset the cost of building the EDL, which comes with Iskandar. There are some who went and bought buy things but many have not and there may not be...

    Lee Yen Mun | The Star/Asia News Network | Thursday, Aug 7, 2014 PUTRAJAYA - The Works Ministry is expected to look into the concerns raised by those affected by the new toll rates. "They (the Works Ministry) are also gathering more information from other (Johor) wakil rakyat over the hue and...

    Thanks for this option Bros. It will work I am sure, cos I have taken the bus to JB sentral and from there hailed a taxi to Molek. But there is no dedicated parking areas. Perhaps when JBCC is up there will be lots of parking places and we could take up monthly parking. Retiring in Jb can...

    I fully agree - there is no reason for the toll hike. I may be wrong, but I think someone jumped the gun when they heard Najib okayed the VEP fees. They quickly increased the toll rates linking them to EDL, hoping that the VEP fees may not be implemented or would be difficult to implement...

    Thanks Bro for the clarification. Anyway, this is the place which causes most of the traffic jam!

    Yesterday, DAP urged Datuk Seri Najib Razak to defer the astronomical toll hike at the Johor Causeway pending a proper public consultation. Its parliamentary leader, Lim Kit Siang, said the toll hike of 480% was probably the highest increase in Malaysian history and was implemented less than a...

    Some say they would, but come to think of it, the key to any variation lies with the JB administrators. Had they not acted on sentiments, the only affected parties would be the foreign vehicles coming into Singapore at specific times. The solution to this is to pass on the increase to...

    Reading the news, it looks like either side is not going to compromise and vary the toll hikes and the VEP......Wonder if it is a precursor to the future MRT to JB - possible ? The ruling politicians kept quiet because they think they are doing good for Johor residents, with some thinking and...

    Wonder if the shopping malls are crowded with shoppers during the weekend. Anyone knows? Singaporeans can still visit JB by bus without having to paying the hike in toll fees! But it would be a chore to carry things bought across the checkpoints!

    The big hoo haa is that there is no good reason for the hike at 1st link knowing that the Causeway was "inherited" and any hike was meant for the EDL which we may not use and the money goes somewhere. Or as what some say, the money goes to "maintain" the EDL? If it is meant to match the...

    I cannot agree with you more especially the weekends when all the businesses in JB are expecting us. They must complain and bring it up to the ruling politicians. The opposition said their piece and was branded pro Singaporeans!

    That is a good signal to the businesses, Iskandar and the ruling politicians who think that the opposition MPs are making noise for nothing.....Let their people complain and be heard. They tend to forget that we need each other and there were good reasons for the moderated Singapore increase...

    I think a lot of Singapore and Chinese buyers thought that they could flip over when the times come. But with the ever changing new policies, there won't be any secondary market to flip over in years to come! And some developers say people are keen to buy despite the higher toll charges - keen...

    I agree. Another hurdle is the last security/customs clearance where we are asked to open our boot! This place is always crowded. I am all for security but it is taking too long.

    A very frustrating experience when we think of the high tolls imposed by JB without good reasons. And very apprehensive of the coming match-up by LTA! Once that kicks in, it's "triple" whammy and we should be better off not to visit JB on our whims and fancy anymore. The ruling politicians...

    They have a good reason to defer since the DPM himself has come out to say they are studying the matter. But if the DPM is lesser respected by the JB administrators they may go ahead first and that could pull off the trigger for Singapore to do likewise in due course. When the increases are...
