Money changers are being kept busy following the reopening of the Johor-Singapore border.

Nur Syaidah Mohd Malik, 24, who is the regional manager of a money-changing outlet in Johor Baru, said the company had been getting hundreds of customers daily since April 1 and even ran out of ringgit at one point.

Nur Syaidah said operating hours were now extended to 24 hours to meet demand. Before this, the outlet was open between 9am and 6pm.“However, we changed our service hours when we realised that there would be a huge crowd heading to Johor from Singapore. “Before the border reopened, we could not even get one customer at the mall. These days, we serve at least 100 customers despite not operating round the clock,” she added.“The number of customers we get these days has increased to almost half of that before the border closed two years ago.
