2 and a half hour +++
from what i remember, it will reach bt timah fairly quickly, after
passing eunos and adjunied...
but before u start thinking, ' yeah, reaching soon ', u will
realise there is more to come... coz it will wind around bt timah
for ages, then go bt batok...
by the time u reach jurong east u will jump off the bus...
for ur info 197 will go thru city, but will take just as long,
maybe longer...
if u take 30, then transfer to 176 at pasir panjang, at har paw
villa, will take slightly shorter, 2hrs plus to reach jurong
central... which is another 10mins walk to jur interchange...
so best is take mrt, will take u 45 minutes from bedok to
jurong...and u can sleep all the way...
