[SINGAPORE] Singapore and Malaysia have finalised arrangements for long-term pass holders and travellers on essential or official business to cross the border - applications for which will kick off on Aug 10, Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan announced on Sunday.

"But you must bear in mind that even with a daily commuting model, there'll be a need for regular comprehensive testing on both sides. So the other parameter is also the availability of mass-scale testing on both sides of the Causeway.

"There are Malaysians and Singaporeans related by blood, and in the last few months, I've received so many desperate pleas. This is the other category, much smaller scale of course, which I have great sympathy for and we are trying to work out arrangements," he said. Earlier this month, both countries announced that cross-border travel for long-term pass holders and travellers on essential or official business will begin on Aug 10 under two schemes - the reciprocal green lane and periodic commuting arrangement.

After at least three consecutive months in their country of work, they may return to their home country for short-term home leave, and thereafter re-enter their country of work to continue working for at least another three consecutive months.
