Singapore, April 1: After a two-year coronavirus shutdown, Singapore fully reopened its borders to all vaccinated visitors on Friday.
Previously, only a few countries could enter Singapore without being quarantined, but from Friday, all vaccinated visitors will only need a negative Covid test.
Apart from Singapore, on Friday, Malaysia’s borders were also fully reopened, and thousands of automobiles and motorcycles streamed through a one-kilometer (0.6 mile) causeway that connects it to Singapore, according to AFP.
The causeway, which is one of the busiest land borders in the world, was partially reopened last year, while some limitations remained.
As foreign tourists arrived at Kuala Lumpur’s main airport, it was crowded.
Tourists were previously prevented from entering Malaysia, a major tourist destination known for its white-sand beaches and lush jungles, but now vaccinated travellers can enter with just a negative Covid test.
