Sektor Pelancongan Anggar Rugi RM105 Juta, Sektor Perniagaan No massive influx of Malaysians from Singapore Astro Awani 21 April 2020 Rahimah Abdullah, PUTRAJAYA: Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob has denied the massive influx of Malaysians from Singapore. He said the average entry of Malaysians from the republic was only about 400 people every day for the past four days. However, he said the government was always prepared for the possibility of mass influx. "Many are worried about our people returning from Singapore. According to a report from the Immigration Department of Malaysia, the mass entry has not yet taken place. "For the past four days, the average entry of our people from Singapore has just been 400 people. For example, on April 18, there were 648 people; April 17 (246); April 18 (245); April 19 (604) and April 20 (297 people)," he said at a press conference here on Tuesday. In the meantime, Ismail Sabri said individuals returning to the country through the Johor entry point had to be quarantined at the quarantine centres as previously announced. "To date, the government has provided 6,000 rooms for compulsory quarantine purposes in 22 quarantine centres. "An additional 4,000 rooms are still in the process, with a total of 10,000 rooms available," he added. Meanwhile, Ismail Sabri said a Cabinet meeting had also decided to limit the operations of the Immigration Department and related agencies at the entrance of the Sultan Iskandar Building (Johor Bridge) and the Sultan Abu Bakar Complex (Second Link). The operating hours at the Sultan Iskandar Building will be shortened from 24 hours earlier to 7 am to 7 pm for the in and out movement of people and commercial vehicles such as trucks and cargo while for the Sultan Abu Bakar Complex, the operation runs as normal for 24 hours. "This is done so that emergency cases and medical needs are not affected," he added. He said the change in operation hours will go into effect on April 24. © 2020 Astro Awani Network Sdn. Bhd.

  • Road Charge Comes Into Force RM20 FEE: RTD Says No Drop in Number
    Road Charge comes into force RM20 FEE: RTD says no drop in number of cars coming in from Singapore IMPLEMENTATION of the Road Charge (RC) at two land checkpoints in Johor yesterday for all private foreign-registered vehicles entering Malaysia caught motorists off guard. As they fumbled with their Touch 'n Go cards at the Sultan Iskandar Building (BSI) at the Causeway and Sultan Abu Bakar Complex at the Second Link, questions were raised about the payment process as soon as the new levy was implemented at midnight yesterday. To help motorists, signboards were erected at the car lanes to explain how they could use their prepaid cards for the RC. The new fee system requires drivers of private foreign-registered vehicles entering Malaysia through the Causeway and Second Link to pay RM20, which will be deducted from their Touch 'n Go card. Road Transport Department (RTD) deputy director-general Datuk Yusoff Ayob, who was at the BSI yesterday, said despite the initial confusion, the new payment system went on smoothly. "Motorists need some time to get used to it. We had some difficulty at first, but we ironed it out and there should not be any problems after this," he said, adding that 38 booths were opened for the RC at the Causeway. Yusoff said the number of staff manning the counters was sufficient to cater to 20,000 foreign motorists who entered both checkpoints daily. Singapore had labelled the new fee as "discriminatory" against drivers from the republic, but it had little bearing on the motorists as the number of foreign vehicles entering the two checkpoints was the same as any other weekday.

  • LABU AIRPORT Chedet.Co.Cc January 17, 2009 by Dr. Mahathir Mohamad
    LABU AIRPORT Chedet.co.cc January 17, 2009 By Dr. Mahathir Mohamad 1. Air Asia has done well to explain the justification for the so-called KLIA-East in Labu. 2. Not having the facilities and personnel I can only give my very unprofessional view on the justification: a) Passenger Capacity I must congratulate Air Asia on its very remarkable success. By 2014 it will handle 26 million passengers. Present terminal at KLIA is handling about 25 million passengers. KLIA is planned to handle 125 million passengers. It has 25,000 acres of land to build another terminal and four satellites. It can even duplicate these terminals and satellites. But Air Asia wants low-cost terminals with no aero-bridge, no luxury interiors. This is not a problem for KLIA. There is enough space in the 25,000 acres of reserved land to build the low-cost terminal to accommodate the 60 million Air Asia passengers in the distant future. MAHB (Malaysia Airports Holdings Berhad) can do this. (Incidentally Putrajaya has only 10,000 acres of land). However, by 2014 the total number of Air Asia passengers would only be 27 million. Accommodating this number should be no big deal for MAHB. b) Runway capacity By 2014 Air Asia will have 77 aircrafts. LCCT capacity will still be for 33 aircrafts. Does Air Asia expect all its aircrafts to be on the ground in LCCT all the time? Usually some would be in the air and many would be at other airports. Expanding the parking area would not be too difficult.

Therefore, the initiative by Iskandar Regional Development Authority (IRDA) in setting targets for low carbon footprint in the economic development corridor of Iskandar Malaysia in South Johor, Malaysia, as well as the nurturing of a green economy through increased investments in environmental assets and green technology and production, is indeed a commendable one, and should serve as a working model for the development of similar efforts at national, state or regional levels.
