Malaysia and Singapore have agreed to build a high-speed rail link between the city state and Kuala lumpur.
The link will cut travelling time between the two destinations to just 90 minutes, from the hours it now takes by rail and road.
The two countries also agreed on a rapid transit system linking Singapore's Mass Rapid Transit system with Johor Baru.
Both Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak and his counterpart Lee Hsien Loong described the speed-link project as a “game changer” .
“This project will change the way we do business, look at each other and interact,” said Najib.
“We hope to meet the 2020 deadline for the project,” he told a joint press conference after the annual leaders retreat here.
The two mass “people mover” projects are part of multi-billion ringgit business deals between the two countries.
