A welcome chance to reconnect


THE Vaccinated Travel Lane (VTL) between Malaysia and Singapore opens on Monday, but even at this late stage, there will be challenges to overcome.

The first batch of Malaysians will be crossing over to Singapore without having to undergo quarantine, the first such initiative with a foreign country. These 4,000-plus travellers will be the pioneers of the VTL via land and air travel.
