Reciprocal Green Lane, Periodic Commuting Arrangement to continue during MCO, says Ismail Sabri

PUTRAJAYA: The Reciprocal Green Lane and Periodic Commuting Arrangement travelling facilities will continue during the movement control order (MCO) period, says Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob (pic).

He said the facilities are the result of bilateral cooperation between the governments of Malaysia and Singapore.

“The PCA and RGL will continue as usual, ” he said on Tuesday (Jan 12).

Malaysia and Singapore have agreed to implement Reciprocal Green Lane (RGL) and Periodic Commuting Arrangement (PCA) travel, allowing citizens from either side of the Johor Strait to cross the border for work or official purposes beginning Aug 10 last year.

RGL will allow 400 Malaysians and Singaporeans to travel to and from the two countries every week, but this is restricted to official travel and important business matters.

PCA will allow some 2,000 Malaysians and Singaporeans with long-term work permits to cross the Causeway and the Second Link every day.
