In the interest of bilateral relations, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin expressed hope today that several travel restrictions between Malaysia and Singapore could be lifted soon. These arrangements had been postponed, despite the fact that they had been agreed upon previously.

The Reciprocal Green Lane (RGL), Periodic Commuting Arrangement (PCA), and Daily Commuting Arrangement are examples of these (DCA).

After a courtesy call from Singapore foreign minister Dr Vivian Balakrishnan, who is on an official two-day visit to Malaysia to discuss bilateral relations such as trade, investment, and health issues, Muhyiddin shared this information on Facebook.

Balakrishnan also extended a letter from Singapore Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong inviting him to the 10th Malaysia-Singapore annual leaders’ retreat, according to Muhyiddin’s posting.

“I took note of Singapore’s proposal to be the host for the retreat this year after it was postponed in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic,” Muhyiddin said.
