KUALA LUMPUR, March 21 — Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng today backed Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s proposal for additional bridges between Malaysia and Singapore.

He said, however, the suggestion requires agreement from their Singaporean counterpart.

“We would need the agreement from Singapore, we cannot just simply build it. This is not something where when you have an intention to build, it can be done tomorrow.

“We have to discuss with Singapore and reach a consensus. But I do support this suggestion as there is a need to have another bridge,” he told a press conference in Parliament here today.

Dr Mahathir had on Tuesday mulled at least three to four more bridges to facilitate traffic flow between Malaysia and Singapore.

He said the traffic flow in Singapore is much bigger as compared to Penang, which is planning to build its third bridge to the mainland in the form of a tunnel.

Currently, there are two land links into Singapore, which are the Causeway and the Second Link bridge.

so that we can export more human capital to Singapore....after that we cry brain drain ?

I really hope more talent are coming back to our country instead of leaking away.

I am looking from Singapore angle here

WHY?

IT IS TO SINGAPORE ADVANTAGE TO HAVE A 3RD BRIDGE JOINING PASIR GUDANG OR PENGERANG

SPORE THRIVES ON TRADE AS SINGAPORE HAS ZERO MATERIAL RESOURCES

IF GOT 3RD LINK TO PASIR GUDANG THEN SPOREANS CAN INVEST IN EASTERN JOHOR, PAHANG, TRENGGANU & ALL THE WAY TO KOT BAHRU IN AGRICULTURE & AQUACULTURE

ALSO WORKERS FROM PASIR GUDANG NEED NOT TRAVEL TO CONGESTED JB CBD TO USE THE OLD CAUSEWAY (WILL SAVE LOTS OF PRECIOUS TIME)

GOOD FOR MALAYSIA AS WELL AS GOOD FOR SINGAPORE

IT WILL BE A WIN-WIN SITUATION FOR BOTH SIDES!!!
