M’sia, S’pore urged to settle spat as ‘a lot depends on ties’

PETALING JAYA: Malaysians and businesses in the country want the current maritime and airspace boundary dispute between Malay-sia and Singapore to be resolved amicably as soon as possible as a lot is riding on the relationship.

With their economies intricately linked to each other – Singapore is Malaysia’s second largest trading partner while many Malaysians in Johor commute daily to the republic for work and studies – any long drawn spat is likely to affect both countries.
