ALL WANT TO TRAVEL FAST FAST NOW IN THE AGE OF SPEED
SEE
Singapore: The trip between Singapore and the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur is the world’s busiest international air route, with more than 30,500 flights between the cities in the year to February, a new study showed.
There were on average 84 flights daily making the short hop which takes about an hour, according to the study by air travel intelligence firm OAG.
A large number of airlines serve the route, from full-service carriers such as Singapore Airlines and Malaysia Airlines to budget ones like AirAsia.
A high-speed railway line is being built to link the cities and is expected to be completed in 2026, cutting travel time overland to 90 minutes from around five hours.
Asia dominated the list of the world’s 20 busiest international air routes, with 14 operating to and from destinations in the region, Britain-based OAG said.
Two operate within Europe, two in North America, one between North America and Europe, while another is in the Middle East, it added.
The world’s second busiest air route is between Hong Kong and the Taiwanese capital Taipei, with 28,887 flights in the year to February, followed by the Jakarta to Singapore route with 27,304 flights.
WORLD BUSIEST AIR ROUTE IS KL TO SINGAPORE OR VICE VERSA

SECOND BUSIEST ON PLANET EARTH
IS HONG KONG TAIWAN
THIRD BUSIEST IN WHOLE WORLD IS SINGAPORE JAKARTA
SO WORLD NO. 1 & NO. 3 GOT SINGAPORE
SO HSR FROM KL WILL TAP INTO THE CONDUIT OF WORLD TOURISTS AND BUSINESS TRAVELERS FROM THE WORLD OVER
THIS GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY WILL BE CUT OFF IF KL-SPORE HSR IS DROPPED
I don't think our malaysian spring would inspire a regime change in singapore but i do think it is possible that PAP might lose more seats in the next GE because there was already crack in the first place.
Dear all, Just do the math at cost of RM 110 billion. Interest will be how much. Need how many raidership and at what fare per passager to just break even. What wrong with our current double track ETS system able to travel at 140 km per hour. Thank you.
This is a rich man's problem. If you are rich, you must cut down travelling time because time is money.However if you are saddled with debts, do you think cut down travelling time to Singapore is priority?
Simply, HSR's biggest winner is China. Next is Singapore, which by then will be the truly the "Southern Gateway" to Asia. As only a pass trough, there are very little materiel benefit to Malaysia, other than to the construction company/s and some "brokers". When it is up and running, it will isolate Indonesia, Philippines and Taiwan to traditional sea & air routes, from "Asia Mainland" under Chinese "control". India will be pressured further. This network also strategically hedges Singapore against the nightmare idea of the cutting of a Suez like canal at the Kra area north of the Malay Peninsular, if it ever arises again. That is why it is natural that the alarm bells are ringing louder in Singapore.
HSR is designed to solve rich mans' problem. The poor (and middle) would not need to travel as fast as HSR can offer. Double track KTM will do just fine. The priority is food on table and other basic needs. Food Prices are getting higher. Also, the rich can cut down travelling with the use of technology ie meeting via teleconference skype. My two cents opinion.
15yrs ago Tun M giving the premier to Pak Lah to take what TUN M planned but unvisioned Pak Lah scrapped it! Then the Pak Lah successor Jib razak songlap all the money and given to Rosmah buy HERMÈS!
hmmm......since we are on the topic of railway & Singapore, I like to ask if anyone knows what happened to the money and joint development project that spun out of Malaysian Gov's letting go of its railway land across and into Central Singapore? Is HSR part of it?

First I want to let all know that Calvin is apolitical. So i am here to talk about investing.
Those railway lands have been swapped for other better useful lands in Singapore As for the existing railway lands they are now used as jogging tracks with no commercial use.
And these are the lands given to Malaysia as compensation
Agree. That's why BN was voted out in GE14. Next is PAP?
Posted by issac99289928 > May 30, 2018 10:38 AM | Report Abuse HSR is not economically viable . a few more huge projects like these will definitely bankrupt Malaysia.
enoughla calvin stop the nonsence la.you mislead many people & many trapped with all of your BN related counter.stop bullshiting la.keep to yourself.many people loss badly becoz of ur cock story telling.guys beware with this fella.
where is ur UEMS buy call?MRCB?talk cock talk west...now its a new govt BN is over..so maybe u are shitting badly with your pants & now asking people to agree with your living fantasy!
keep for urself la calvin...no need to tell people what are u buying for goodness sake!!!..u are a very dangerous man...its better for u to keep quiet rather than making noise everyday.
if the HSR were to proceed.. and taking a RM 110 billion loan, say at 3.5% interest.. each year MOF or the msians have to pay around RM 4 billion..to service the bank interest alone.. i dont think the train can make them $4 billion a year of net profit..? so if we dont want to pay via GST or others, then no need to argue..its a clear decision.
i can feel that this talk cock calvin lost badly coz all of his BN related stock now is toilet paper.the moment he appeared he will talk like those GURU than used WARREN BUFFET as his reference.WB your ah kong ahh...go fly kite lah calvin..boasting all year round.i pray hard that GOD will punished you heavily.What goes around come around!!
calvin, did u know both china n japan r maker of hsr? we are just user. this point is a huge point, the revenue bring in to china n japan by just using HSR as a product. not to mention china hsr building were to resolve financial slow down in 2016 as well as resources overcapacity including steel, aluminium and high skill worker.
calvin, Your bullish position has come tumbling down on you, eh. Your opinion on this is so skewed. First of all, both Japan and China are creditor nations with high population density. We are up to our ears in debt. Secondly, the amount of leakage was relatively low in those countries compared to Malaysia. All those companies whose shares you bought are nothing more than rent seeking cronies. Large tracts of land destined to be built into stations were bought ahead by insiders (cronies, no doubt) looking for a big payday when the project starts. Indeed, one day we may need the HSR but it is so far in the future that the interests on the borrowings would have buried the nation way before then. Sorry about your portfolio. Another day, perhaps?
Except of daily Johorean workers plying to & fro Spore, the number of Msians touristy going to Spore has decreased substantially compared to early 70s & 80s bcos of higher Spore Dollar agst RM. So HSR will not benefit Msians and the fare is definitely not coming to be cheaper compared to AirAsia or other budget airlines.
Actually i dont think you calvin tan can make alot of money fr bursa klse. Most of ur buy and hold kantoi base on ur fundamentals analysis. I don't think nt know how many times you've cut losses
Agree on your point but will Calvin read and respond fairly? How abt BN govn who think they still right until lose GE14?
