Come Guess One Thing SG has Way More Than Malaysia.....

[escksu]

Its traffic lights!!! SG everywhere traffic lights..... sbieh jialat..... And everywhere red one......Today travel till frustrated. 30min journey time, around 12mins spend on waiting for traffic lights......

I have no idea why such a tiny island need so many traffic lights for what?

Traveling in malaysia is really alot better. Less traffic lights, everywhere much better.

Come Malaysia, car get stolen easily, car has more wear and tear due to road conditions,
a lot of road bullies, traffic light got, but not working, kena AES jialat.
Erm, if I were to take a guess, traffic CCTV and public CCTV is way more than Malaysia?
Please lah, the only disadvantages SG has is the size of the country.
Still, a better managed country. Unbiased too?

Actually, I feel malaysia roads are better. OK, I have limited experience, mostly NS highway. But its so well maintained.

Drivers... no! I can say MY drivers are more considerate on the road. Esp. NS highway. They don't hog the right lane one unlike stupid SG drivers!! How I wish SG roads are like that.

Talking about cameras..... maybe SG got more speed cameras..... I hate it. Drive also cannot drive in peace. Every overhead bridge must see got mata hiding there with speed cameras or not. Then there is redlight camera.......

I find Sg better. Okay fine a lot of traffic lights. A lot of stop and go. What if... What if you try to make use of the situation? Get a hybrid car. You get good burst of acceleration everytime as the battery gets charged often. Then you get way better fuel economy too.

Malaysia roads may have less traffic lights to slow you down. But the traffic jams is a total ownage.

Well, traffic CCTV is good. For surveillance.

Bro, I am not joking nor trolling. I really feel that MY is alot better than SG. Housing and Car is way too expensive in SG. Right now, I don't even know how to afford a tiny 3 room flat in SG. I have to pay around SGD 300-400K, thats ridiculous for such a tiny house. COE for car is now SGD73K...... I still have 3yrs before my Satria Neo COE expire. I don't even know how to renew my COE cause I can't afford it. Screw the gov.

Then SG is terribly overcrowded. Look at the trains and buses, everyday so pack. Road everywhere jam. Trains keep breaking down. Our public transport system is so lousy. All those stupid transport companies only think about making money. Then they still talk about 6.9 million. Screw them.

Now, I want to get out of this stupid island. I want to go JB to live. Even my friend also thinking about JB. SG is way way too expensive and crappy to live in.

Naah, Malaysia traffic jams are still peanuts compared to Jakarta!

The problem is that cars are way overpriced in SG!! $122K for a 1.5L Prius is ridiculous.... How to afford......

Screw our PAP gov that only favours the rich.

I agree that Sg is a hell hole to live in for the middle class. But I thought you were talking about traffic here. I think if you compare overall living, malaysia is still better. But if you talk about infrastructure, sg is way ahead.

Well if you talk about roads, I think Sg is better (in terms of quality). Sg roads are worse in terms of length. If you talk about traffic, I think sg is better.

For traffic, the stupid gov shove ERP down our throats. Go thru gantry beep... and see money auto deduct. Same gantries cost $4 - $5.... daylight robbery.

I feel life is better in MY. 2 weeks ago, I went JB for dinner. Cheap and good food!! Free parking!!

In SG even eating also need to worry about traffic wardens come summon car..... WTF.....

Ideal situation : You live in JB, earn SGD.

But in Malaysia, it's one of those countries where a 2-lane highway can turn into a 5 lane pileup when it runs after work hours.

And have you ever been stuck in a traffic jam that lasted 3 hours just to travel 22km? Only in KL during rain after office hours. Why? Cuz it's bloody flooding everywhere.

 

[YellowFlash]

both countries have their own advantages and disadvantages...its about how you view it, of course you want cheaper cars and cheaper housing then jb will be good but that is only if you earn wages in sg. imagine you work in jb, you are going to be complaining like singaporeans do... because dollar vs dollar, sg is cheaper in alot of areas for eg food/retail. Sg is also highly favoured by the rich as its much safer and you can go around flaunting your wealth and not being afraid that you'd be kidnapped or murdered. well, i only wish if msia could be safer then it'll definitely be a nicer place to live in.

put parking coupons? if you can afford to drive, im sure you can afford a $1 dollar coupon or so. btw i live in both jb and singapore hence i am in a good position to answer your questions.

sell your car, y u bought 1 in the 1st place. u dont need it, just rent a small room for the time being, cook your own meal,
bring to work for lunch & dinner, after a while u will get used to it. once u have saved up a sum of $$$, u can buy property in JB or anywhere in MY.

Well in Jkt we've been in 4-5hrs jam for just 10-15kms travel though! But yeah, also due to massive flooding for more than 50% of the city at that time!

The grass is always greener on the other side. No point debating. You complain about traffic lights, we complain about lousy roads that flood and public transportation that doesn't work, the lack of traffic lights here doesn't help when its flooding.
