Tigerwoods Turbocharged June 7, 2011 Share June 7, 2011 I'm going for a holiday in Malaysia. I heard from news that they are documenting Thumb prints and it is taking a long time just to go pass customs. As I have not gone thru JB by car for quite a while I hope fellow MCFers can guide me on the changes : 1. How long of wait thru Second Link ?? On a Saturday Noon time 2. I hear now you pay only by Touch "N" Go card. Can buy in Singapore ?? Pls share your experience so that I can reach my destination on time. Thanks ! ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermitage 1st Gear June 7, 2011 Share June 7, 2011 Saturday noon time?!? One bro took 4.5 hours mate! Another took 6 hours! Think you'd better go in before the break of dawn if you wanna get anything done on time! Touch and Go think can buy from the customs itself? Forgot already!

Bfmstg Clutched June 7, 2011 Share June 7, 2011 (edited) just to share, how long to wait hard to guide but last saturday i went in at about 7am plus stucked till my turn already near 8am. they implemented the new security system, using left and right 2nd fingers registration. only one time needed if never done before. children under twelve no need to do it, but adult passengers must come out of the ride to do the fingers registratio. touch b go card can purchase after the custom as told by the customer office. buy from the toll counter or pay by cash like what i did. go to the left lane indicate bus, lorry follow the Q.....you can top up TNG card from the counter also. hope this help Edited June 7, 2011 by Bfmstg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackmazda6 Neutral Newbie June 7, 2011 Share June 7, 2011 On Sunday morning I reached the Malaysia toll booth at 4am at the 2nd link. There was no other cars in the two lanes that were open. Yet it took the custom officer 15 minutes to clear 3 adults with finger scanning and 3 toddlers. That was my experience. I dread to think how many hours i needed to wait if I were to left Singapore later. I'm going for a holiday in Malaysia.
