Johor Bahru, the Shenzhen of Singapore, or is it the Haadyai instead? Geographically we are one, so near, and yet politically, so far. "Prosper thy neighbour," proclaims one senior politician and then promptly attempts to pulverize its neighbour with water issues, air space issues, sand issues, and what have you. And then out of the blue, there arises the crooked bridge... much ado about nothing. Yet we must accept that crooked is scenic to some, for if a crab can walk sideways believing it to be the most graceful and the most gracefulest gait, who are we to say that it is not. So let us agree to disagree.
We are no Gandhi, so let us pretend not to altrustism. In so long as we try not to impoverish others, that should suffice. For we are of one race, the human race, and if Voltaire were right, also of one religion... for you see, says Voltaire: "When it is a question of money, everybody is of the same religion".
And with this, Welcome to Johor Bahru! This portal attempts to provide you with a comprehensive guide to everything that is Johor Bahru.
