High Speed Rail (HSR) operational by 2026, exciting future
I think the High Speed Rail (HSR) is a very important “connection”for Malaysia and Singapore. Let’s not debate on which country would have more benefits. Seriously, we need to look at a bigger picture. Both countries remain small by ASEAN standards. Today, we achieved a new milestone. An MoU was signed between both the countries…

MRT Line 2, Sungai Buloh – Serdang – Putrajaya (SSP) updates
I have faith with the Klang Valley property market. I also have faith with many further and secondary areas which will be connected in the near future. To me, it is never just that few areas always loved by many. It happened to be way too expensive for the majority anyway. Secondary areas would get…

MRT Line 2, some recent positive updates
Greater Kuala Lumpur is definitely a good place to do property investment. We can keep blaming the jams or take some actions because MRT Line 1 would be fully operational by mid of 2017. In fact, the Sungai Buloh to Semantan station will start operations in December 2016. Yes, I am quite excited and would definitely…

High Speed Rail – MOU by June 2016
Will HSR be completed in 2021? Or even 2022? Well, 2020 is a little too short as a deadline. Are there people waiting for news about High Speed Rail before buying properties in Greater KL? What about buying properties in the Singaporean side of the HSR station? It was earlier announced that the station would…

Singapore Transport Ministry: Not yet ‘true’, still discussing
I read some news online about the High Speed Rail (HSR) having two services. One is direct while another is with transit stops. In fact many were sharing and I think the general consensus is that this is a good plan. I personally also agree that there should be options too. In fact, if there…

MRT and the Ampang Park shopping mall
I really am not sure if all the retail unit owners within the iconic Ampang Park shopping mall are happy with the latest announcement that the Ampang Park shopping mall will now have a new design option and thus no longer need to be demolished. This is as per announced by the Mass Rapid Transit…

MRT Line 2. Good news to cheer about.
Yes, it’s only going to be ready in 2022. Yes, many things can happen along the way but can any MRT lines be suddenly approved, tender starts and constructions fully completed within three years anyway? Sorry, got carried away by someone who commented that all these mega plans will only be ready in 2022, so…

KL – Singapore High Speed Rail has huge interest
The original date is out but the High Speed Rail (HSR) between KL – Singapore is still moving ahead. In the current Request for Information (RFI) exercise launched by Malaysia’s Land Public Transport Commission (SPAD) and Singapore’s Land Transport Authority, a total of 70 companies and consortiums have expressed their interest by registering before the…

High Speed Rail – overall summary of what’s up.
MyHSR is the new company tasked with Malaysia’s High Speed Rail (HSR). As everyone noted, the timeline of 2020 is most probably off because even the cost sharing between both countries have yet to be agreed, at least based on what’s reported thus far. The new CEO beginning Sept 1 2015 is Mohd Nur Ismail Mohamed…

KL – SG High Speed Rail, still many things to talk.
Reported in many media today. I think it’s pretty official now that the High Speed Rail between Kuala Lumpur – Singapore will definitely be ready only in 2022, earliest. According to Land Public Transport Commission’s chief development officer Prodyut Dutt, details for contracts for the construction would be known in two years. This takes into account…

Kwasa Damansara, NAZA TTDI and TWO MRT stations
There is little doubt that I personally like Sungai Buloh area compared to the Kajang area. Thats why both parts should continue to do well. I have many friends who prefer Kajang and said Sungai Buloh is ‘so far.’ Haha. Another piece of good news. Kwasa Land Sdn Bhd has just awarded a 12.7 acres…
