I am 63, yet I have not seen this part of my beloved country. I have always wanted to travel around Singapore by bus. It's a bit scary to imagine waiting for the bus alone after 7pm in those lonely bus stops. Thank you Brother for giving me this ride, God bless you 🙏
The drive on Lim Chu Kang Road nowadays is most like driving in Yio Chu Kang Road from Sembawang Circus to Jalan Kayu back in the 1970s, with the long narrow twisty 2-lane road with trees on both sides & little developments along the way...this i consider the 'time capsule' to relive the drives in old rural Singapore in the current times !
Hello there. I'm 35, a Malaysian, from Johor Bahru, Johor, Malaysia, I know this bus is number 975, from Bukit Panjang to Lim Chu Kang Rd end, via Lim Chu Kang Rd, a quite clean, green, cool and breezy road, some people don't know and said this road is in Malaysia, not in Singapore, during early morning and evening. I always take ride for this bus 975, from Choa Chu Kang interchange, sometimes I ride a bus 172, from Boon Lay interchange, while going to visit my late grandfather, a Singaporean senior citizen graveyard at the Pusara Aman Muslim cemetery off Jalan Bahar, Choa Chu Kang Rd end, Singapore. Thank you and I love Singapore.
_Wow I was shocked and pleasantly surprised with Alan's latest upload, because I had thought that he wasn't going to post any bus journeys any time soon. But it speaks volumes about the genius of the man to pick this particular SBS Bus number 975. Those familiar with Reddit will also know that it is highly ranked as one of the most scenic bus routes in Singapore with unique sights to behold. The rustic backdrop of Lim Chu Kang and it's jetty has become synonymous with Old Singapore including the remote army camps. There were many sectors that were urban legends of Old Singapore too. The ghosts of the past have yet to step into Modern Singapore. Such are the fables of Old Singapore. Great pick Alan and well done!_ 🇸🇬👍🙂
I got to thank this viewer who informed me that the double decker service is only available on weekends 😁 sadly I can't seem to find his comment to acknowledge him but I hope he sees this so he knows I followed his advice 😁 glad to have finally seen the full length of the bus journey. I used to do reservist at sungei gedong camp so I really dread this bus journey 🤣
Walau! Poor thing Alan you used to do reservist at that terrible camp? So many parental complaints until MINDEF had to finally abolish the camp. Feel sorry for you lah 😢
as a Singaporean, i must say there is no such thing as countryside in Singapore😂😂there is always buildings within about half an hour's walk even in the remotest areas
@@SmoovyNovaFan Its true. I think countryside isn't an "accurate" description in Singapore's context. But its true its really remote and most Singaporeans haven't seen this side of Singapore =D
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Yea i'm sure i don't know anybody who has actually been there haha😂there is a saying here, you can drop anyone on any part of Singapore and its impossible to get lost, if you are lost in a "forest" you can just walk in one direction for 30 minutes and high chance you'll find a bustop

Wow! this is amazing. I lived in Singapore as a child in the early 70s and the end of this clip reminds me of how we used to have to drive through lush greenery to get to the beach (Punggol back in those days, maybe...?) I'm definitely going to try to do this bus route when I finally get back.
Thanks for the sharing 😁 glad you have fond memories of the area. If you take bus 975 and want a double decker view, you have to take it on a weekend 😁
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Cool! I was initially wondering how you managed to get such a clear view, then it clicked. Double decker has an unimpeded view from the top !
@@PaganMin-1966 Same bro. It was really like chalet. See old friends and catch up with them. I always joke my sleep in bunk is more than the whole year put together. And the cook house food is good stuff. Always looking forward to western
Haha. I don't know if you want to spend time sitting a bus just to see this part of Singapore. It was a loop service and it brought me back to Bukit Panjang after a short wait.
It is rare to see such country side road n scenery. I will bring my bike here n cycle for long distance as the traffic is so light, practically nobody except vehicles. What a beautiful country side of 'concrete' urban Spore.....
Very nice video. Brings back childhood memories. I lived in Chua Chu Kang near Sungei Tengah when I was young. It was a kampong then. We used to catch longkang fish in a nearby stream. Now it’s so different.
Thanks for sharing your memories 😊 the area is changing quite a fair bit from what I see. They seem to be widening the roads in anticipation for Tengah housing estate
😆😆😆😆Can u still see the 'longkang'? Or is it concealed underground? I miss those good old kiddo days to catch n fish at this 'longkang'.....it was not so polluted or toxic those days....😁😁😁
@@KUKUMAIL no more lonkang now. In those days, when it rained a lot the whole Chua Chu Kang area was floated and the lonkang would overflow. I recalled I was stuck at school till at night because of the flood and the school bus couldn’t go through.
I never knew that Singapore still have a lot of green and under developed area that have vibe like in Johor countryside, like shown in this vid in Lim Chu Kang area....
Yeah. It's a side of Singapore we (even myself) rarely see. Lim Chu Kang is predominantly well known for its cemeteries, air and army bases and some farms
I waa working in jurong shipyard and used to live in Amakeng near Lim Chu Kang,, almost time came to chua chu kang and jurong Point,,, we used 175 Bus from chua chu kang. Graveyard, Airbase,jungle, python all i remember.
16:34 This surprised me since back in 2017, this Brickland road used to have a canal leading to Bukit Batok for running and cycling. I check Google Maps and it is still there. The road is now updated for the construction of the new Tengah MRT Station (Jurong Region Line) slated to be completed by 2027.
I like how clean and orderly everything is in Singapore. Only thing I'm annoyed of is people using their mobile phone for playing music loudly to everyone.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV I took 975 to the end and filmed the rain around some of the super ulu roads there. Can get a bit creepy. Found an abandoned fish farm. Scary siah.
Thanks Jazz 🙏🤗 hope you have an enjoyable ride. By the way, I was told that double decker services are only available on the weekends, unless you are okay with just a side view of the countryside 😉
This bus route is also known as one of the most haunted bus routes as the remote area the bud goes to is haunted because it is near choa chu kang cemetery that had over 80,000 graves
Interesting to see the very straight and wide highway style section of Lim Chu Kang Road parallel with the airforce base at Tengah. I presume that section of the road was intended to provide an extra runway for military aircraft in the event of war? Good bit of planning. Nice Video.
Yes! It was indeed planned as such. There are even occasional military exercises to test how fast they can dismantle the lamp posts to prepare the road as a runway
meanwhile, i just got back from a 20km walk and i filled up 2 bags of litter from around macritchie reservoir... singapore ain't all pretty rainbows. There are a lot of workers, prisoners (court ruled as punishment) and volunteers who pick up the trash.
@@MoonLiteNite I hear you. There are definitely many spots around the island that have tons of trash. Some I can think of are the northern shores at the mangroves where all the plastics gather. I experienced it first hand when the payment for a few hours of kayaking were to fill up a sack of rubbish. I was actually almost inspired to film the scene (come back another day) but was worried about tipping over in my kayak and damaging the camera. But now that you remind me I might have to consider trying it some day
Good question. At the end of the video, there is a jetty in front. From Google maps it looks accessible. I don't think there is a shoreline walking path though. Probably someone with knowledge of the area can share more information
Nice to see this route getting featured on your channel! Oh I also recommend route 925M which passes through Kranji dam but operates only on Sundays and Public Holidays I’m not sure if there will be double deck buses However, I’ve seen pics of 925M double decks on the internet, maybe u can try your luck?
Hey lomplomp! Just to check if you were the one who commented that 925 only has double decker service on weekends? If so then thanks alot! It's because of your comment that I realise why 925 on weekdays were single decks. 925M on Sundays? Okay will keep it in mind and check it out someday
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV Yep I suggested to film 975 on the prev bus vid, glad to see this route getting featured in ur channel! For the Sunday 925M double deck, u can use bus timing apps to check if the route have double decks running before heading to film it (It’ll save quite some time from having to guess if the double decks are actually on service or not!)
@@6lomplomp Thanks for confirming. I wanted to say thanks in your original comment but strangely enough I couldn't find it. In any case, I am glad you replied here so I can thank you for it =) That said, what app should I use so that I know if it will be a double decker service?
great video! ignore those sour grapes. all they cud think of is small size, easier to manage. very shallow and show a complete lack of critical thinking. and its always from those same pple where their countries being larger, having plenty of natural/human resources barking out loud. absolutely disgusting.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV personally I did not enjoy feeling cut off from the feeling of life & the urban ‘heartbeat’ of Singapore so for me it did feel a bit miserable. Didn’t enjoy NS much, but that’s just me. I’m glad I’m done with my obligations.
Its really haunted especially inside lim chu kang army forest, was there for pest contol work catching real live mosquito in a small bottle during night time 10pm in the middle of forest. Was working with one colleague suddenly from nowhere a stone was thrown to us from some of the dark bushes. It keep doing that but it doesnt hit us just beside us. Couldnt run anywhere wtf. Tomoro on i quit the job n had fever for week lol rolf lmao coward am i 💩
I am watching this video again, and what striked me is - after entering Lim Chu Kang Road the scenario is like that of an episode from Twilight Zone - 'Where is everyone!?" 😧
Yeah. Very sad about it. My camera overheat and shutdown. Had to cool it a bit before restarting. The bus aircon wasn't working well and the interiors were hot and stuffy. That said I have a cool down method so it doesn't happen again 😁 just have to trial and error and keep on filming to find solutions
Those are really diff. 975 will be amended via Old Choa Chu Kang Rd and the new Lim Chu Kang Rd. The live firing area in the east, will be history, together with MUTF. I heard MUTF will relocate its training facility to SAFTI City (got underground MRT trains)?
I get anxiety watching the bus plying through the remote bus stops and wonder what how it is at night waiting for bus there. Pretty sure it's haunted along that stretch.
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV unfortunately no, the Lim Chu Kang Rd End jetty is not accessible to the public, if I remember correctly there's a sign there prohibiting us to enter, saying it's a private property (with another warning - beware of crocodiles) :D :D
@@indrapr Thanks for the info Pramana! Lucky I didn't get off the bus then 🤣 Was wondering if I was missing out on anything. I am totally not familiar with this area
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV yeah,last I heard they want to develop that area, they probably change their mind I just happened to know a nice pakcik there while praying their small madrasah
I am 63, yet I have not seen this part of my beloved country. I have always wanted to travel around Singapore by bus. It's a bit scary to imagine waiting for the bus alone after 7pm in those lonely bus stops.
Thank you Brother for giving me this ride, God bless you 🙏

Its really haunted especially inside lim chu kang army forest, was there for pest contol work catching real live mosquito in a small bottle during night time 10pm in the middle of forest. Was working with one colleague suddenly from nowhere a stone was thrown to us from some of the dark bushes. It keep doing that but it doesnt hit us just beside us. Couldnt run anywhere wtf. Tomoro on i quit the job n had fever for week lol rolf lmao coward am i 💩
@@lonewolffirezax1149 That's because you are away from the lit areas! The road is now literally as bright as a F1 race track!
I am watching this video again, and what striked me is - after entering Lim Chu Kang Road the scenario is like that of an episode from Twilight Zone - 'Where is everyone!?" 😧
🤣 Yeah. It's a very lonely stretch. Maybe I can try to film it at night
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV that's sounds scary 😱
You skipped bus stop 30029, 30019 and some others before the turn to LCK Rd..... 21:07
Yeah. Very sad about it. My camera overheat and shutdown. Had to cool it a bit before restarting. The bus aircon wasn't working well and the interiors were hot and stuffy. That said I have a cool down method so it doesn't happen again 😁 just have to trial and error and keep on filming to find solutions
Those are really diff. 975 will be amended via Old Choa Chu Kang Rd and the new Lim Chu Kang Rd. The live firing area in the east, will be history, together with MUTF. I heard MUTF will relocate its training facility to SAFTI City (got underground MRT trains)?
26:43 where things gets spooky
I can't imagine how it will be like at night
I wonder where did you put the camera at.. Maybe ask the uncle to put it on his steering wheel location? 🤣
Would be a positive thing if the transport company ever allows 😁 but I sat on a double decker and placed it at the front seat
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV it used to be a single deck bus now its a double decker
How much is the fare?
If you pay by cash, its $2.80. If you pay by card, its $2.17

👍👍
😁😁
I get anxiety watching the bus plying through the remote bus stops and wonder what how it is at night waiting for bus there. Pretty sure it's haunted along that stretch.
🤣 I don't dare to film at night. I'm just worried I won't be the only one at the top deck 😂
I was thinking the same too. Lol.
Good place to ride bicycle but need to bring lots of water
Would definitely be an interesting bike ride =) Might want to try it someday
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV @Dave Yes, Lim Chu Kang Road is a favourite place to ride a bicycle. :)
@@indrapr sounds like you know the area well 😁 btw the pier at the end of the video. Is it accessible to the public?
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV unfortunately no, the Lim Chu Kang Rd End jetty is not accessible to the public, if I remember correctly there's a sign there prohibiting us to enter, saying it's a private property (with another warning - beware of crocodiles) :D :D
@@indrapr Thanks for the info Pramana! Lucky I didn't get off the bus then 🤣 Was wondering if I was missing out on anything. I am totally not familiar with this area
Remarkable too!
New day new post. Outstanding! Red and like sharing you will?
Thank you 🙏😊
👌👌👌
😁😁😁
Can you make one at night?
Would be challenging 🤣 this camera cannot handle night shots and the interiors of the bus will be too bright to see anything outside
Environment and modernicity of Spore city is more or less same as KL..
Haven't been to KL in decades. Nice to hear its the same level as Singapore
Actually we still have lots of land!
🤣 I think all these lands not suitable for residential. Too far away.
No kampung scenery in the most remote part of Singapore...so different as compared to Malaysia.
Yeah. All our kampungs are nearly gone here. Probably just left 1 on mainlander and 1 in Pulau Ubin.
This is as remote as you can get in Singapore..
I would think so 🤣 really the ends of Singapore
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV is Kampong Buongkok still around?
@@rushdiahmad2435 yup it's still around
@@DiscoveryWalkingToursTV yeah,last I heard they want to develop that area, they probably change their mind I just happened to know a nice pakcik there while praying their small madrasah
👍👍👍🎥👍👍👍
Thank you Nazar! =D
💚💚💚🇸🇬
🙏🙏🙏😁
👍👍👍👏👏👏
🙏🙏🙏😁😁😁
Keat Hong Camp is gone and no TAB what a let down.
What's TAB?
Tengah air base
@@manerosnf8449 Thanks for the explanation =) Would be challenging to go inside the air base to film =P
don’t ever take 975 at night
thank me later
🤣
gedong camp ptsd
🤣🤣🤣 Really nightmare camp
Tamil musical instruments
Haunted?
Lim Chu Kang area is infamous got its Muslim and Chinese cemeteries
Singapore. Not many species flower plant. All buildings. Tasteless food. Cant feel village vibe here. Stay for 2 month boring already 😆
Hope you have a better experience next time 😉
Singaporeans are glad you went back to your kampong.
👍👍👍🎥👍👍👍
🙏🙏🙏😁
