A win-win solution to congested causeway traffic which is one of the highest in the World.

Looks like Spore won’t have HSR until most of the ASEAN countries complete their HSR projects.

HSR in Indonesia- Jakarta-Bandung completed, phase 2 (TBD)
HSR in Thailand (2 lines) - Work in Progress
HSR in Vietnam - Line between Vietnam and China is under construction and North South line will start before 2030

It is too expensive to build one what with all the under the table cost. Including maintenance cost by the amateur bummi companies, it may be cheaper to give tickets for the people to fly bet Sg and KL.

We only need MRT...
700 sq km, good enough 🤭

Thai side also stall, only to Laos really moving
https://southeastasiainfra.com/high-spee...-to-china/
given the budget I doubt other lines will moved.

Sg by right no need to have new rail.
But consider Scythian said Thai have plans to link to land bridge
and recent rise in frequent air turbulence

perhaps we can consider Dr Mah once idea, slower thus cheaper speed rail Laughing
