KUALA LUMPUR: Singapore's High Commissioner to Malaysia, Vanu Gopala Menon is hopeful that the vaccinated travel lane (VTL) quota between Malaysia and Singapore can be increased in the months to come.

He told Bernama that discussions have been going on pertaining to the matter, but, decision to expand the numbers is subject to the Covid-19 situation in Malaysia and Singapore.

"Either that or go back to 100 per cent like it was before, but whether we can do that, I don't know. We’ll have to see how things evolve. All of us are hopeful that we can get there,” he said. "But people are generally happy to have the opportunity and the option to travel without quarantine,” he said.

Both countries suspended the ticket sales on Dec 23 following the threat of the Omicron Covid-19 variant.
