I agree with BF (there is no train station in Phuket anyway) but driving in Malaysia is easy and fuel is cheap.

Love Singapore - Hoping to get to the Singapore Garden Show in July and then catch the train to KL for a few days and then to Penang, again stay a few days , and on to BKK. My question is - i am booked into Fragrance Pearl in Geylands. Is there a better , if not cheaper Hotel around (near a MRT Station). Can't believe the prices of Hotels in SIN now. Is it safe area providing street smart strategies are employed?

Its a nice run - section around Gemas is very "jumgly".
Single track for most of the way.
On the "down" side is the fact that for 4 years I handled the regular derailments on that stretch for the insurance companies.
On the "up" side is that in 4 years there were 7 passenger train derailments ( monthly goods train incidents ) with no serious injuries as the max speed on the KL - Sing section is about 55 kph !!!

Hey SBF, looks like you'll get a couple more chances to stand me up for a beer...

Asian (Aussie) Football Champs are on in Singapore this year, September 7-9th.

and MrsKW wants us to visit also, later that month...

Alas, no more . . . Petrol/Gas is now at RM2.70/litre after the government decided it was going to slash subsidies (how can an oil-exporting country be subsidising the stuff when the pump-cost was RM1.70?)

Still cheap compared to some other countries of course . . . Hi LoS!
