Welcome aboard Jom Naik Bas! (or Let’s Take The Bus!) A blog for all the reviews, the opinions and my passion for buses.

For a start, I will repost all of my previous entries on reviews and articles on public buses in Singapore, as well as the cross-border express buses of Malaysia. These reviews will now be known as “Jom Naik!”. The BusBlogFeature will also be a permanent feature of this blog.

Some of the BusBlogFeature entries posted are:

A brand new series will also be featured on Jom Naik Bas!, thanks to a collaboration with my Malaysian enthusiast friend Nazmie Dalhar. His informative posts on his trips across the Peninsular Malaysia will be translated to English and reposted on “Jom Naik Bas!”. These series will be known as “Jom Makan Angin!”. Should permission be given, I will also do a repost of the reviews done by others on these series as well. The first Jom Makan Angin! review will be posted in early July.

• Jom Makan Angin to the East Coast (Part 1)

I will also feature a brand new series on other bus journeys, which I will name “Kembara Jom Naik Bas!”, or “Jom Naik Bas Journeys” in English. This series will not just be a review per se, but will also highlight some of the services that a bus company operates and some details on the operations. Bus hunting trips that I’ve done will also be a part of this series.
