SINGAPORE: Things were generally smooth on the first day of the implementation for the Reciprocal Green Lane and Periodic Commuting Arrangement at the Singapore-Malaysia border, said travellers interviewed by CNA on Monday .
The PCA allows Singapore and Malaysia citizens or Permanent Residents who hold long-term immigration passes for business and work purposes in the other country to enter that country for work.Meanwhile the RGL is for Malaysia and Singapore residents keen to do shorter-term travel of up to 14 days, for essential business and official purposes.
However, some travellers said that as there was no public transport or shuttle buses provided between the two checkpoints, those without their own private vehicles had to travel on foot. Some travellers entering Singapore through the PCA scheme also told CNA that saying goodbye to their families was difficult as many would not be returning home for at least 90 days.
