Since the pandemic started, Nathan Saminathan, who works for a healthcare facility in Singapore, hasn’t been back to see his family in Seremban, Negri Sembilan.

The 38-year-old Malaysian from Seremban has been working in Singapore for three years, but would return to see his family almost every month, that is, until the pandemic hit and borders restrictions were imposed.
