All this jaw-jaw about mutually beneficial projects could be an election gimmick by the 2 PMs who are both facing increasingly antagonist electorates.

SINGAPORE: Singapore and Malaysia have agreed to build a high-speed rail link between Kuala Lumpur and Singapore, with a target to complete it by 2020.

This was announced by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak on Tuesday during their annual Leaders' Retreat.

With the new link, it will take about 90 minutes to get from Singapore to KL and vice versa.

The two leaders described the high-speed rail system as a strategic development in the bilateral relations, saying it will dramatically improve the connectivity between Malaysia and Singapore.

The link will also facilitate seamless travel between KL and Singapore, enhance business links, and bring peoples of Singapore and Malaysia closer together.

The train travels 350km per hour. It stops for 1 or 2 minutes every station, sure can make it to KL in 1.5 hours, no problem.

You might want to stop digging that hole deeper

Because some people want to be different for the sake of being different, not because it makes sense.

It nearly worked, until LKY moved too fast to take over power...... He should have slowed down with his Malaysia Solidarity Convention and quietly buys UMNO over to his thinking...... see how the British took over Malaya in the 19th Century without firing a single shot ?

KUALA LUMPUR, Jan. 26 (Xinhua) -- Trains from Malaysia going to Singapore are canceled on Saturday after a train derailed and four of its cars overturned, injuring at least seven passengers and a crew member.

Police said the 10-car train with 117 passengers onboard had derailed as it was passing a forest near the Singapore border in the afternoon after five cars came unhooked from the train.

Witnesses told reporters that some passengers were trapped in the front several cars for an hour without air conditioning after the accident.

Tourists from several countries including South Korea were on the train during the accident but police did not say if they were among the injured.

Police were still searching if there were more victims trapped in the derailed cars as operator KTM railway canceled trains for the day and offered ticket refunds.
