Johor to submit plan to reopen Malaysia-Singapore land border

Kuala Lumpur

THE Johor state government intends to submit a proposal to Putrajaya on its plans to set up a border reopening scheme that would allow Malaysians in Singapore to commute back and forth daily across the two land checkpoints.

This Daily Commuting Arrangement (DCA), as it is called, will cater to as many as 30,000 people each day, mostly those who need to commute between Singapore and Johor for work, as well as students.
