Ender Hypersonic February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Most of the discussion is about us going north. They coming down south is going be a even bigger problem. Even with the 3rd causeway or KL rail, it's going to more malaysian coming down south and going home north after the business that makes the peak hour rush. 6.9 million cannot tahan liao, want to increase the ease for KL coming down south.

Kangadrool Supersonic February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 (edited) THose Five Star, grassland, 707 BUses will hav to jiat kaki liao... Maybe not. I highly doubt so. There's always a market for lower end and niche. Also, depends on how high/low they priced the fare for HSR (sure it won't be cheap). I will rather take these tour buses direct to destination rather than HSR to KL, then transfer out using taxi/bus. Sure these bus companies know how to adjust as time changes. We didn't see these companies shrinking as SIN-KL budget airlines took off. In fact, more bus companies joined in.

13177 Supersonic February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Coach still got ppl take, its those budget airlines kana I will not spend 2 hrs early going to airport, check-in, take a 45 flight to KL, spend 30 minutes on road from airport to KL ... Still got people take flight to KL, only those people on business trip. For leisure, dont think anyone would be interested taking flight to KL, cause too time consuming on going early to airport and to the KL city.

Oblong 3rd Gear February 20, 2013 Share February 20, 2013 Some time back, it was planned that the rail will link from SG to China passing through MY, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam and ended in Beijin. http://news.qq.com/a/20100406/001665.htm more like western part of china (mid west) than the coastal or northern Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact, more bus companies joined in. to make any commercial sense at all, i believe they have to be priced slightly lower than budget air fares but higher than bus fares. should be around the range of S$80- S$130 Edited February 20, 2013 by Acemundo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
