An average of 350,000 daily travellers cross the border from Malaysia to Singapore, mostly for work, since the border reopened on April 1, 2022 after the Covid-19 pandemic.

OVER the past two years, the state government has been actively involved in upgrading infrastructure and public amenities for the benefit of the people and also to attract more investors into the state. Among the improvements include upgrading of roads, the two land checkpoints with Singapore, public healthcare and even cleanliness state-wide.
