Johor Bahru-Singapore train to commence operations by end-2026

The rail system will operate from Bukit Chagar to Woodlands North.

The Johor Bahru-Singapore Rapid Transit System (RTS) Link project will commence its passenger services by the end of 2026.

This was revealed during Minister for Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan's meeting with Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah Ibni Almarhum Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Al-Musta’in Billah, the Yang Di-Pertuan Agong XVI of Malaysia, and his counterpart, Malaysian Minister of Foreign Affairs Dato’ Seri Diraja Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir.

The Johor Bahru-Singapore RTS project will operate from Bukit Chagar in Johor, Malaysia, to the Woodlands North station in Singapore.

Apart from the progress of the rail project, Balakrishnan and the Malaysian officials also discussed how both countries can expand exbilateral collaboration, particularly in new areas such as the digital and green economies.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
