Wow! Thanks for sharing. I didn't know there is such a crowded busstop 😅
You are welcome Shawn Kelly. Many residents in Singapore are not aware there is such a crowded bus stop in Singapore during the morning peak hours.
C ur do ya my
Woodlands desperately need a mrt station right at the checkpoint, and the causeway crossing is getting to ridiculous proportion. Both countries also desperately need that cross strait train line to be completed asap. The situation is untenable and insane.
Agreed, why didn't they learn from HK (Lo Wu/Lok Ma Chau). Or at least make the situation better by running more cars/coaches on the KTM Tebrau Shuttle with a 10 min back-and-forth frequency
@@speedbirdconcorde001HK should learn about how to manage their houses properly if you get what I mean.
@@itzmeolivia HK's housing issue is caused by an artificial land shortage. The government gets most of its cash from land sales since their tax was once very low (positive non-interventionism). Another thing is that they have massive country parks and the government is criticised by environmentalists when they want to build housing there, even on the fringes of the parks.
Honestly, the root cause of their housing issue is them bowing to pressure. I've lived in both HK and Sg so I know. It's time for HK to ignore what these "environmentalists" say and do what is good for the people. There are many homeless, living in cages, and entire families living in the size of a parking lot.
Now they want to reclaim land off Lantau when they could just build on the parks! Brownfields, they say? Oh, it needs to be decontaminated. And existing structures have to be demolished
@Speedbird Concorde 001 it is different situations, HK and China belongs to the same country, maybe still have different rules and regulations, however the coordination is far easier, Singapore and Malaysia are two different countries, not as easy as what you think, there are a lot of politics going on.
@@eveleung8855 I definitely understand, but at least over in the Sg side, they could make it easier for people to travel to the checkpoint, by building the mrt next to it. JB doesn't have an MRT/LRT system, but there are cheaper taxis and private hire over there.
Kudos to all our Malaysian workers who Have to go through this day to or their working life in Singapore.
Thank you contributing to the Singapore
@言行一致 thanks for the money 🙏🏻
@@kinkywinkyrinkydinky We're grateful and respectful to doctors but doctors are also working for our money. Therefore, Malaysians who choose to come to work in Singapore because of money should also deserved gratitude and respect. A hawker runs a food stall to earn money not to do charity but we're thankful to them because of their hard work, we can enjoy all kinds of delicious food without all the trouble preparing for it.
This is shocking that such a scene is happening everyday in Singapore. Thanks for sharing! And if there is too much to handle for designated bus services, our local authorities should consider to outsource to private bus operators to operate at peak hours. Surely there are those blue Bas Kreja which should be interested to rake in some quick revenue. Win-win-win for authorities, business & commuters
Why is it shocking? No one forced them to come here.
You pay for their private bus operators? If everything also need private bus operators, then wads the point of having buses?
@@chantalmonique2353
Obviously you have an IQ problem. Of course it’s commuter who pay. Authorities only need to approve.

Reminds me of another infamous video of bus service 190 that plys between choa chu kang and Orchard area that saw a guy filming so many buses being full that people could not board at all.
The video resulted in smrt having to deploy marshals at the bus stop to assist passengers as well as improving frequency
And what was the kneejerk official reaction? Just last year at ION bus stop past evening time and hardly any crowd on a weekday, that service 190 came in a row of 5 buses one immediately after another within a space 4-5 minutes!
@Tang T I wouldn't say it's an immediate knee jerk. Since that video, lot has changed.
Of course, the first immediate response was the deployment of marshals and additional bus services.
But since then we have newer bud service plying the route like 972 which is targeted for the bukit panjang area.
Not forgetting the opening of the Down Town Line in particular.
These developments defitnely helped alot.
Now orchard has the Thomson line.
For this bus service in the video I think it's really going to come down to the RTS to address this but it's going to take another 2 years.
I not sure if Malaysia's insistence to use their preference of trainsets is a good idea. It's similar to their LRT system in KL which is essentially like the upcoming Jurong Region Line MRT.
If its really bad then I guess it's a shame then.
I think even the TEL as originally intended to have the trains used for the RTS would be full house.
@@Benjamin-wy4dj you know how extremely lazy IBs paid with Singapore tax payers monies are using cut and paste without editing Chatgpt.
@@tangt4860 190 always bunch after expressway
190 fleet has 53 buses, the highest for any service in sg iinw. so its common to see them bunch.

This bus stop has been crowded for more than 20 years I think. I live in Woodlands/Marsiling area for more than 30 years to experience this type of thing in my youth. They never improve anything and just let it be. I'm 50+ now and drive a car to avoid all this mess. Took me half of my life to get where I am.
I am sorry that the workers/travellers experienced this for such a long time. If there is any problem in Singapore, just have to ask around and ask which department is in charge of it and raised the issue with the department. Nowadays it is much easier due to social media. Unfortunately I lived in Queenstown so I am watching this video for the first time, otherwise I would have raised the issue to LTA a long time ago. Question: is this still happening every day or this is an old video? Thank you.
Getting the best of both worlds these guys
Until the RTS becomes operational in the next 3 years (i.e., 2024/25/26 and assuming there's no delay), the interim solution is to deploy 2 or 3 double-deckers at one go every 5mins and drop them off at an MRT station for their onward journey. Another issue is to install railing (like those at bus interchanges) so that the passengers can board in an orderly way. Without the railings, I too would fight with these passengers to board any bus that comes. It's survival of the fitness, or should I leave it simply to luck? I wonder if LTA is aware of this issue?
railings or filter lanes wont help.its the passengers' mentality and non discipline are the main issues.standard problems faced by every bc.passengers dont want to move and occupy empty spaces behind thus creating chokepoint at front preventing other passengers from boarding despite repeating pleas from bc.society here and there don't know how to use common sense when boarding and filling up spaces in public buses.
Or procure bendy which has more capacity
When the masses arrived from the train station the buses will be overwhelmed by these masses and I pity the school children not forgetting when it rains early in the morning during the peak hours... 😢
That looks like my sch bus stop after school. And the thing is, we all go NEX so...😂
The bus stop was crowded cause the system of transportation has to enlarge its bus fleet to solve this problem.
That is Magnificent video captured, happy weekend
Thank you very much! Happy weekend to you too!
You notice there are alot spaces at back
This is the reason why i choose to work night shift.
No wonder there are still so many cars on SG.
respect to all the msians doing the daily commute
It’s the money that they bring back that motivates them 😊
@@phuocfubokfuku3067So you work to get a praise? Sounds more like a “you problem” if you choose this type of work, but then again we need to show some respect to the workers at least.
bobian now rent expensive plus owner no give privacy
please add more buses maybe just to check point and mrt during periods where they commute to work and home
Do you think having a bus service (e.g. can call it bus service 905, similar to 902 to Republic Polytechnic) that comes every 5 minutes to send them directly to Kranji/Marsiling/Woodlands MRTs help? Only for morning peak hours...
This has been going on for years. Way before the bus 190 fiasco, it’s incredibly stupid that LTA has not introduced a new service to relive the crowds, there is space for more than five new services at the current woodlands interchange.

These are the people that make Singapore so strong in economy, they only give to and not take from. Singapore should taking good care of these working people. There is no Singapore without them.
If this had been a daily happening for years, and not everyone's is gracious, why can't bus stops be improved to have queue railings installed where passengers, like universal studios, disneyland, mandai zoo et al did for crowd control?
It used to be only chinese Malaysians that come over to work in Singapore,but when Indian Malaysians see the chinese earning good salary they also come over. Singapore suddenly have to deal with alot of indian Malaysian workers coming in that's why so crowded.
The Indians who work at the food stall at a Woodland foodcourt are all Malaysians but their boss provided accommodation.
Woodlands has the most access to bendys which they should honestly send over in the morning, i mean where else is gonna need a bendy for capacity at 530am? ik easier said than done la, but good that this vid is raising awareness also cos most of these things prlly go unnoticed by most people (myself included)
911 got bendies ah
@@3asonchan dh, but can transfer over from the other woodlands svcs, prioritise the bendys for svcs gg to train checkpoint. like i said 530 is rlly early, rlly not the hardest thing to do.

Singapore should come to malaysia and learn how to Q once ride the bus..
The bus driver should open both from and back doors. Now you can tap in from both. Only thing is he can’t see who taps EZ link or not.
That's exactly what they do with cross-border buses after clearing immigration. Someone stands outside the rear door
All those mostly Msians..some frm vietnam, indo etc..on werk permit, pass holder etc werkin in Spore.
I desperately wanted to cross over S'pore every time I'm in JB..passport ready but no cheap or convenient transportation available..so I feel you
Hi Linda, it is actually quite easy to cross the causeway during non-peak hours. This video was taken during the morning peak hours, once the morning peak hours are over, it will be so much easier.
If you are crossing over the weekends, best is Sunday after 1pm and come back after 10pm. Minimum waiting time and little to no jam at all.
Public transportation is really cheap and usually a breeze during non peak hours. This video is the worse case scenario and probably near factory areas where workers are trying to rush back home after work. Wish you good luck on your travels
4:27 you really can hear the bus struggling with the loads as it pulls away! It makes me wonder though, is there not any decent cycle infrastructure or railways in SG?
Nearly 99% malaysian workers
And 1 singaporean youtuber
Why not a dedicated shuttle service running from 5am to 6am? Since so many people, and mrt so near, profit margin should be high right?
Should I invent a Double Decker Bendy bus???? 🤔🤔🤔
Wow! It will be really interesting to see a Double Decker Bendy Bus!!!
😂All buses calling 911 after seeing crowd
oh my thats alot of ppl.. 9.88k subs really close to 10k!!
Thank you zzzopi! Yes, coming to 10k sub soon!!! Yeah!!!!!!
Wooohoo!!!!!
they can potentially buid a small bus interchange
Surprisingly, the empty grass land opposite the bus stop used to be the old Woodlands Interchange. It moved to Woodlands mrt. The government should have kept a bus terminal there at least.
@@averageuser2027 Agreed. Or just built the woodlands north MRT next to the checkpoint, so you eliminate the need for buses
Being a Singaporean, we have been getting the opposition party to question PAP, on the no. of foreign workers flocking into Singapore to work…displacing so many locals….it’s such a disservice to us locals, when we vote these jokers into parliament who ended up push us, locals, out of jobs n yet foreigners taking over our jobs have the cheek to complain about our service provided for them….u shud count ur blessings, tat we provide jobs for your daily meals while ur own country government can’t provide….count ur blessings, when we still have transport to get u from home to work n then back home, while ur own government can’t even provide half of tat service well enough….
Have so much complaints, there’s a few options:
1) get up earlier, to beat the crowd
2) rent a room in Sg, then u dun need to squeeze in the crowd lorz….
3) dun work in Sg lorz….find a job in ur own country, ask n demand from ur own country government, why vote them n yet u have to come over to Sg n suffer…..
That's true go to changi business park and it feels like I was transported to Mumbai. WAKE UP SGREANS!!!!!
Im curious to know where is the 2nd most crowded bus stop in SG?
this can best be described as buses doing MRT job
Transport Minister !
Since most people are heading to the nearest MRT station. I do not know why most people wanna cramp, squeeze, and desperately hop-on to the bus. Where Marsling MRT station is just 10-15min walk away. Instead people stand and wait for 30 to 60 mins. Logically speaking I believe there will not be a feeder bus specifically just for this. If the journey is so smooth, Malaysian will not be renting houses in Singapore therefore less revenue pouring into Singapore Economy.
Somewhat true actually. If the journey from Malaysia had been smooth, housing prices would have been in control
Honestly I really wonder why they didn't build the woodlands north mrt next to the checkpoint. Over 100,000 cross daily and yet still rely on buses to get to mrt stations. Seems that they haven't learnt from Lo Wu in HK, where people get off one train, clear immigration, get on another train
Do you really not know that Woodlands North station will be integrated with RTS when completed? The JB-Woodlands train service will cease within six months after the opening of RTS.
you know why our singaporean will go there buy house.
Have you been sleeping under a rock? What about the RTS?
They can earn more by building the mrt further away from the custom. Hundreds of thousands of Malaysians have to pay for a bus trip first after clearing custom before taking a mrt again to get to their workplace.
@@anglo-saxonconnor817 you know Singapore public transport fare system is by distance? As long as you use the same card to pay when making transfer, and you don't transfer more than 5 times from bus-bus or bus-mrt or mrt-bus, you will pay the same fare calculated by total distance traveled. Taking bus+MRT vs MRT-only will make no difference to the fare for trips of the same distance.
wah. so fun. ill join in
These morning peak hrs should have 3 mins intervals ..halo operators ..
Oh my god why is it so crowded😢😢😢🙏🙏🙏
They are all Malaysians working in Singapore because the economy in their country is weak, meaning there is a lack of jobs and even if they are, the pay is too low with a weak currency
@@SuperValue350yes everything is weak and I wonder why I'm still alive and survive the weak economy .
@@leanrd8989 You hallucinating?
When my family had to rent a place in gelang patah Johor, we had to leave around 4.20am to catch very early cwlink bus to Singapore every working day, that goes by 2nd link. The crowd at the gelang patah bus interchange was not as bad.
WITH 5MILLION ONLY POPULATIONS THIS IS SHOCKING..I MEAN SINGAPORE CAN DEPLOYED DOZENS OF BUS IN RUSH HOUR 😅😅
This early morning rituals of wobbling in the crowds is exactly the time these people pray to the universe to show them the path to riches 😂
Bus 190- mission impossible flashbacks
Kalo di Indonesia sih udah pada beli motor. Ga tahan
Smooth travel🙏🙏🙏
This is why we need bendy buses, they have more capacity than double deckers.. But LTA refuses to buy
10 days ago!
Crowding will definitely stop when the train link to JB via the MRT is completed. A while away but will definitely solve the is problem.
uhhhh i wouldn't be so confident... but it'll lessen the crowds at the very least
May I check is this bus stop still so crowded or is this an old video?
The situation has since improved, buses are coming earlier and more frequent too
average day during rushes in roblox croydon
Very surprised to see how this can happen in Spore !!!!
I saw this bus stop overcrowding many times already and I thought many residents in Singapore may not be aware, so I posted the video to create awareness and hope the overcrowding situation can be resolved soon.
never let them know your next move
take 160 170 or 950
The bus company should arrange special bus service only during the peak hour to ferry the workers to the nearest MRT Station. And, erect barricaded queue lanes for orderly bus boarding. A first world nation with a third world public bus transportation services.
One issue does not define a whole system.
Of course this situation can be improved, but that does not mean the whole public transit is bad.
Your comment is too harsh
that is kind of sad to see. i guess people would be willing to go through this to earn 3x the money in their country 🤷🏻♂️
So simple solution. Just start the bus service earlier 1hour la
Got scheme B buses or not?
I will never know why people refuse to move in. Is someone actively smoking in the back?
didn't realise how bad it was until the bus left omg it looks so crowded but the back still got sm space (relatively)
So many foreigners here ! VTO PAP is a must !
Do you want to do their kind of jobs?
@@seagull9889 With good pay, why not? These Malaysians are pushing wages down.
@S C Get real! People who cross the border are usually those who work in sectors where Singaporeans do not wish to take up like F&B (where one have to wake up before dawn and the hours are long, not to mention having to work on weekends) and blue collar jobs. The better paid ones would have rented rooms here. Seriously, are you or your children really willing to take up these jobs? Try being an intern in any of the sector mentioned for 1 month and see if it works.
The whole drop off point outside the checkpoint is badly designed. The drop off point for taxi/PHV/private cars is too close to the bus stop. And the area is too narrow for the crowd it's holding. LTA could have easily solve this by realigning the road so to give more space for the bus stop and car drop off point, considering the plot of land on the opposite is empty now.
I think should put q barriers .
Our culture is: just push through, no queue
Foreigner worker in Malaysia much more comfortable rather than Malaysian working at Singapore…. but foreigner work in Malaysia never appreciated…
Sadly they becomes uncivilized when the bus arrived. The people at the back will pushed the ones infront.
Typical of some of the Malaysian's
Typical Malaysians, you can't take the Malaysian mentality out of them
how about a short working trip?
Wow. This is in my country?
Ministry of Transport add more buses🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Where do all these ppl come from anyway? Shuttle Tebrau? cos 160/170(x) and 950 would go straight to an mrt
nvm i'm dumb i forgot u can walk across causeway
Ministry of Transport!
Add another 3 more bus If needed la. You know is crowded make it efficient can or not
I was there
The bus stop situation has improved since the video was posted
Malaysian no paitent , when take bus. Need rush in , just wait for another bus cannot meh
The flow of people crossing the causeway especially during the morning peak hours is continuous and they will need to get onto the bus fast or else the bus stop will be very crowded. I think one of the main issue here is there is no metal railings like those found at bus interchange to make people queue for bus, else it will be more orderly.
is there any temp issue like only for bus from mrt A to mrt B and to Train Chkpoint
I hope the Bukit Chagar MRT can solve this... though not now.
For the good reason first bus shut have 2 buses in one time then shot people waiting at the bus stop one thing for their safety standing at one bus stop.LTA must do it better for safety for their lives.for service 170x kranji to JB checkpoint must used double decker bus for crowded people in and out two country Avery day.LTA shut test for double decker buses.i hope LTA doing for testing for this bus line
This kind of human volume need MRT to solve the traffic issues not buses. Too bad both countries will not made it easy for people to travel between them otherwise rentals will be affected. There are always problems involving customs clearance and mrt building completion date.
This bus stop is near the checkpoint. They enter Singapore early before the bus starts operating. These public buses take them to the nearest MRT station which is not even half an hour journey . The interval timing for the next bus(es) is about 10 -15 minutes which can easily clear the crowds. Soon Rapid Transit System which is said to be completed by 2026 may allow people to travel to and fro across the border efficiently.
RE class be like
If everyone learns to queue to board the bus in an orderly manner, it would be a more pleasant morning routine for everyone.
would require a redesign of the bus stop just to do that
Malaysians are a third world people, they have no idea what "orderly manner" means.
@phuocfu bokfuku Before whining, I think you should work on your grammar and spelling first
🥲In an ideal scenario totally stopping foreigners from working in any country is impossible in this world. The best nearest possible thing a nation can do is to decide upon on the hiring ratio in a country with what kinds of jobs and how many positions can be given out for foreigners to do and it is also best if Singapore can do what they do with the Indian labour from India by making foreign job seekers to be bound to a timed work contract and housing them in dormitories. This will made the place more well controlled and less chaotic.
As for Malaysia all I can say is you have all the land and resources to become greater than Singapore but you squander all these natural conditions away which is so sad for your people. Try to improve on your country economy and create better living conditions for your citizens so that they don't have to live like this instead.
this is crazy and honestly unacceptable.
All due to the allure of the S$
Even the bus stop inside Woodlands Checkpoint is not exempt from this.
Oh well, the RTS is coming soon so that’ll take away the crowd…
At least the bus stops inside have guide rails.
Year in...year out but world class transport country don't even bother to make improvement?
I never imagined I could find Mumbai in Singapore
Where is the least crowded bus stop ?
This bus stop is near Woodlands Train Checkpoint.
Bangla in Malaysia is better than Malaysian work in Singapore
Here is the best part. I keep hearing Malaysians saying that RTS doesn't benefit them, yeah right. Think with a bigger brain malaysians
jiu hu sais!
Why is the bus in the thumbnail 911...
911 is the most frequent bus service in that crowded bus stop

How to get easy money
All Malaysians. They come here to work because Malaysia's economy is so weak. Imagine kicking your former state out thinking it would fail and now your citizens are going there because they have a stronger currency.
That's not a good reason to treat them like cattle.
Yup Msians werkin in Spore.
So? They're humans just like you. Get off ur high horse and be respectful. Call urself a 1st world country but attitude is that of the 3rd world.
Lol. Don't talk cock sia. You think SG would survive without cheap labour from across causeway? Dream on. Half of SG population is from across causeway.
I don't see how our government should affect us, painstakingly don't
