THE situation at all entry points at the country’s borders are under control with no occurrence of any untoward incidents following the reopening of Malaysia’s borders after two years due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Inspector-General of Police (IGP) Tan Sri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said.

He said the police have adequate personnel on duty at entry points to ensure that cross-border movement proceeds smoothly.

“I can say that the situation is under control, we do see some congestion at the Johor-Singapore border, but it’s all under control.

“Also, the cooperation between the police and public is one of the reasons why everything is going smoothly without any issues on the day our borders reopen,” he told reporters after attending the Enforcement Agency Integrity Commission (EAIC) appreciation ceremony today.

He advised the public to always comply with rules and the standard operating procedure set by the government, especially where cross-border movement was concerned.

On March 8, Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob had announced the reopening of Malaysia’s borders on April 1, in line with the government’s plan of transitioning to the endemic phase. – Bernama, April 1, 2022.
