I live in Singapore, a country at the southern most tip from the continent of Asia, and the region of South East Asia. Singapore and Malaysia is only separated by a narrow river and sea strait of only about 3 kilometers across between these two independent countries.

It is convenient to enter Malaysia, to the city of Johor Bahru by car, bus or public transport across a road bridge connecting access between Singapore and Malaysia together. Malaysia is a place with a population like Singapore, a main population of Malays, and small communities and populations of Chinese and Indians. The most spoken language in Malaysia is Malay.

This article, I journal my commutes from my holidays and getaways in the capital city of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur. I travel there to Kuala Lumpur International Airport by a 45 minute budget airline flight for about $80 Singapore dollars one way and $130 Singapore dollars in total for a return flight, I buy my flight tickets in a package two ways, back to Singapore.

Kuala Lumpur recycles its financial economy with the Malaysian Ringgit which is steady about 3 Ringgit for 1 Singapore dollar. Prices of food and items in figures of numbers in Kuala Lumpur compared to Singapore are about two times higher in Kuala Lumpur. Overall, it is a relatively great place to hideout for a holiday or getaway with great value for money!

The city of Kuala Lumpur connects with it’s airport, Kuala Lumpur international airport via all land modes of transport. For many who prefer to avoid Taxi haggling and bargains, Kuala Lumpur services an airport to city central rail line known as the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA), KLIA “Ekspres”.

Tickets can be purchased via automated ticketing machines which accepts all modes of conventional cashless payments, or can also be purchased with cash over the ticketing counter when it is opened. The KLIA Ekspress runs in two modes, an express mode connecting passengers directly between KLIA and Kuala Lumpur “Sentral” station without any stops in between.

Also, a rapid mode “KLIA Transit”, which includes major precinct and town stops between KLIA and Kuala Lumpur Sentral. Tickets with return way to original destinations and priced in conditions with the average of 90 Ringgit per adult.

From Kuala Lumpur “Sentral” station, other available modes of rail line transports are available to ferry passengers to their final destination. Including a Light Rapid Transit (LRT) and a monorail which the monorail station is connected via a coupled access from a nearby mall connected under shelter from Kuala Lumpur Sentral Station. This mall is “Nu Sentral”.
