JOHOR BARU: Fully vaccinated Malaysians in Singapore are elated by the news that starting today, they can quarantine at home when they return from the republic instead of spending two weeks at a hotel. While describing the move as timely, some are hoping for Singapore to reciprocate by reducing its two-week compulsory quarantine period. Nurbayzura Basaruddin, who works as a fast food outlet manager in Singapore, will not be returning anytime soon due to the quarantine cost in Singapore. “I hope that the Singapore government can also consider some leeway for those who are fully vaccinated,” said Nurbayzuara, 34. “I hope that Singapore will also help relax the quarantine period for those fully vaccinated,” he added.
