this indeed cuts short the traveling distance to go desaru & Pengaran... no need to hook up to Kota Tinggi then come down again...
anyone tried this route already???

Have not tried the expressway .......trying to get the whole family on weekend before august. Distant from CIQ to desaru noted at sign board approx 100km using the old route....with the expressway with higher speed time taken will surely reduce.....

With immediate effect. I will boycott all travel to malaysia.
Limited restrain from buying malaysia made product.
Yes.....the women are stupid for not getting their passport stamp......the nude thing and heavy handling of this matter has crossed the line !!!
Worst, take bribe already and break promise. This is very very bad for their underground economy. It is the circle of trust thing.
Remember, bribing is a penal code offence and now they are not even qualified to receive bribe. Not a cent !!!

Think abt it... is this new??? There have always been funny things happening at their custom... I can easily recall incidents of, (1) Passport's pages being teared, (2) passport not chopped, (3) white card not chopped, (4) white card not returned to passort, (5) custom insisting that SG's OPC must display OPC coupon when driving in MY, (6) & many more... ... My colleague's boyfriend was detained for 48 hrs @ MY custom during returning bec' the custom didnt chop on his passport when entering... & they blatantly asked for $$ in order to release them... really dont know what they are thinking or trying to prove??? With immediate effect. I will boycott all travel to malaysia. Limited restrain from buying malaysia made product.

I think at least I am lucky, my son passport chop was added a comment "Change Photo" twice. The third time, they actually wanted to refuse entry to Malaysia. I can only say "OK, I U turn back lor" But the officer make a call and he said "LAST CHANCE" and I was allowed entry. So at that time I thought they are reasonable pple. Never ask for angbo. My impression is changing....... On my trip to Sunway, I was stopped, seeing all are either MPV or 2L or higher car. I can only keep repeating that I did not speed. They did not ask for angbo but probably they are waiting for one. They can only a) Let me go or b) issue a fine, there is no c).....no angbo. Until this event. I have no problem with Malaysian, it is a employee of the state issue. I will wait for a respond from them. And my expectation is that some heads need to row or charged in their courts of law. Singaporean after 2011 is no longer the same hor.......No more Let Move On crap..... Think abt it... is this new??? There have always been funny things happening at their custom...

Appletree,
atleast your son passport wrote 'change photo'... I've a relative's passport only write 'CP' (short form for change photo)... The immigration officer also nvr verbally tell my relative... Wah kau, expect ordinary people to know what CP stands for,... Then on his third visit (after the 'CP' was written, MY imigration refuse to let them return to SG... In e end my relative paid RM50 angbao then they were allowed to pass...
Tis is boleh land lah...

I double checked my son passport. Got 2 Change Photo warning in 2010. After that 4 more time......heeee......no wander they are so angry at that time. They did say something......but too noisy.....don't even know they are speaking malay or english. Anyway.....all travel to JB on hold until I hear from all parties...... Tell your friends and relatives.....no angbao for them. We spoils the market ....... Appletree, atleast your son passport wrote 'change photo'...

Very scary moment with family on board ....nearly 8km without street light and not a single car on sight, on spot light high beam all the way...quite an aventure....we still laugh when we talk about the scenario....just imagine all the creepy crawler and the wild monkey if we decided to stay put.
