Guideline on Malaysia Passport renewal / application in Johor Bahru
For Malaysian working in Singapore and
wish to renew current passport within a day, there are 2 options : go to the UTC Johor at Galeria Kotaraya or the main immigration office in Kempas, Johor.
As Sunday is now a working day for the
public sector in Johor, it smoothens the whole process and saves your annual
leave.
Galeria Kotaraya - How to get there ?
Galeria Kotaraya is situated at Jalan Trus, about 10 minutes walk from City Square. Operating hours is from 8.30am - 5.30pm, except public holiday.

Kempas - How to get there ?
After you clear the immigration and leave
the CIQ complex (Custom & Immigration Quarantine Complex, Bangunan Sultan
Iskandar), proceed to the adjacent JB Sentral which is situated in between the
CIQ and City Square.
Go to the taxi stand at JB Sentral itself (which is more
regulated) and get a cab direct to the Kempas main immigration office. The journey takes
about 25 minutes and taxi fare is ranging from RM30–RM 40 single way, depending
on the type of taxi, either red cab or blue cab.
Try to reach early in order to get the new
passport within 1 hour. During the waiting window, you can have your breakfast at a mamak outlet near the entrance.
My experience :
I woke up at 5am, reached Woodland checkpoint at 6.10am, reached JB Sentral at 6.25am, and finally at Kempas just before 7am.

The counter which issues queue number opened at 7.30am and I got #0007. Thereafter, went to level 3 which opened at 8am, waited for my turn, paid the fees and told to come back at 9am for collection. During waiting window, I went for my breakfast and collected the brand new passport just before 9am. Took a taxi from a taxi stand beside the main entrance, and headed back to CIQ.
Here is the official address :
Jabatan Imigresen Malaysia,
Negeri Johor Darul Takzim.
Kompleks Kementerian Dalam Negeri,
Jalan Setia Tropika,
Taman Setia Tropika, Kempas,
81200 Johor Bahru.

1st Penang Bridge and 2nd Penang Bridge
A strategic place whereby you can view the first and second Penang Bridge at the same time, same spot is at Equatorial Hotel Penang, Malaysia.
The first Penang Bridge opened to traffic in 1985. The second bridge should be completed by 2013.
This cosy Equatorial Hotel has some real good restaurants. So, have some good bites while enjoying the breathtaking view :)
