Harbourfront,Singapore.

Aeroline coaches drop their passengers from KL at Harbourfront,Spore. Those from Johore Bahru itself stop somewhere else. After alighting from the coach,look for the sign board that says Harbourfront Centre & follow the arrow..and you are on your way to the bigger picture of the city by either taking the MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) something like the LRT but this has more carriages & is fast and mostly underground system or by bus or taxi.




Taxi stand - we took the Mercedes taxi,because there was no other taxi then. We're charged $35 ($25 normal fare) to our hotel at Mount Elizabeth and the driver was very courteous & at the same time became a tour guide explaining and showing us the history of the buildings & places that were on our way to the hotel. "That place over there,is where Lee Kuan Yew stays. It is heavily guarded by soldiers..and you know how much he earns in a day? $10,000 a day. Goh Chok Tong & Lee Hsieng Loong also earn $10,000 a day. Itu Lee Kuan Yew,very clever. Bla..bla..bla.."said the chauffeur(remember I was in the Mercedes),while chauffeuring us to our destination.















Cable cars to Sentosa Island







Harbourfront is a place where people take the boats,ferries,cable cars,etc to places like Sentosa Island,Batam & a few other places. The place is very busy; a shopping complex cum mini sea port. Things are much cheaper than in Orchard Road's..
