"This is what we have discussed and agreed upon," he told a press conference on Friday on non-health related matters after a special meeting by ministers on the RMO implementation. Malaysians in Singapore who have accommodation problems are urged to contact the Malaysian High Commission for assistance, said Kamaruddin.

The Johor government will also be involved in the discussions between the two countries because it involves the movement of people between Johor and Singapore, he added. Another category of Malaysians who are allowed to leave are diplomats assigned to the various embassies.
