    Living in JB 3 (Johore)

    I quite like the outlook of V@Summer Place but I don't like that area. I am also not keen in R&F because it's too close to the causeway. Traffic sound will be horrendous.

    Well, the country is rich, isn't she? Anyway, if the stop is to be in the city, it has to be underground. Other than the East-West Line, the rest of the MRT lines are all underground when passing through the city. They should join the Raffles or City Hall or Marina South Lines, though...
