Singapore Health Minister Ong Ye Kung said that Singapore and Malaysia share a common desire to re-establish connections while the authorities hope to start taking concrete actions to reopen borders as soon as possible.
Bernama was inquiring about Singapore’s plan on border measures for Johor and the minister statement is in response to the inquiry says Singapore media.
Vaccination in Johor is crucial in attempts to re-open borders between Malaysia and Singapore. The border state has ramped up vaccination initiatives, hoping to loosen up movement between its people and Singapore, given its importance to the state’s economy.
As of Saturday, Johor is at 62.3 per cent for those fully vaccinated.
