Hoo boy, not everyone is happy with the upcoming high-speed rail link between Singapore and Kuala Lumpur. As if Jurong Country Club members aren't already displeased with the fact that the train terminal will be taking over their digs, they're now even madder with the amount the Government is offering to acquire the site.
The Straits Times reports that the Singapore Land Authority (SLA) awarded a compensation amount of $89.9 million to take over Jurong Country Club. The amount however is a helluva lot lesser than what the country club members expected: $168 million.
