Singapore and Malaysia yesterday agreed to a scheme for compassionate cross-border travel between the two nations. From May 17, citizens of the two countries will be able to travel to the other in the event of deaths and visits to loved ones who are critically ill.
The agreement was announced on Sunday by Singapore’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Vivian Balakrishnan and his Malaysian counterpart Hishammuddin Hussein, at the tail end of the latter’s two-day official visit to Singapore.
According to the statement, “the two Ministers agreed on the procedures and entry requirements for death and critically ill emergency visits between Singapore and Malaysia. This agreement provides a framework to facilitate travel between the two countries for compassionate and emergency reasons.”
