From her hotel room in Johor Baru (JB), Madam Jaclyn Lim could see Singapore. Her home country seemed so near.But with massive jams at the Johor-Singapore Causeway following tighter security at the Republic's land checkpoints, home seemed far away.Motorists said the jams were lasting up to five hours.Madam Lim, who is in her 50s, has been driving from Singapore to JB for work for nearly 15 years.But the director of a company in JB was so afraid of getting caught in the Causeway jam that she stayed in a JB hotel twice this month.The hotel room cost RM260 (S$85) each night, but she felt it was worth every cent.Madam Lim, who has two children in their 20s, said yesterday: "When I went on the Internet to check the traffic condition at the Causeway last week, there was a jam because of the holiday season."I decided to just stay in a hotel so that I would have more time to rest instead of wasting it getting stuck in the jam."
