Five SBS Transit bus services – 70M, 111, 133, 162M and 502 – serving the Suntec area will be affected by road closures for the 33rd ASEAN Summit and Related Summits, announced SBS Transit in a press release on Monday (12 November).

The authority stated that these buses will skip these three bus stops from 12 to 16 November:

The Singapore Police Force (SPF) and Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) stated last week that there would be road blocks and stringent security checks in the area to ensure the security of the summit.

The authorities had declared an area bounded by Bencoolen Street, Beach Road, Nicoll Highway, Fullerton Road and Victoria Street, among others, as an Enhanced Security Special Event Area from Tuesday to Thursday.

They noted that leaders from 10 South-east Asian countries, along with counterparts from China, the United States, Japan and Russia, will be participating in the summit.

自6月1日起,入境马国旅客须自行承担隔离费用

马来西亚国防部高级政务部长依斯迈沙比里表示,所有入境马国的人士,都必须自行承担隔离费用,并须在来马前签署同意书。 依斯迈沙比于每日媒体简报上表示,由于马国将持续对从国外返马的人实施强制隔离,因此该措施也将自6月1日起生效。 据报道指出,马国公民只需支付一半的隔离费用,至于非马国公民,即使是其配偶与家庭成员,都需自行支付所有的费用。 此外,欲入境马国的游客也必须附上同意承担隔离费用的同意书,该同意书可在马国大使馆获得,在签署同意书后,大使馆也会发出许可信,允许他们返马。 与此同时移民局也会像所有航空公司发出相关指令,规定入境马来西亚游客必须一同签署同意书。 自4月3日起,马国政府已对从国外返马的马国公民实施强制隔离,截至目前,已有3万8千371名从海外返马的马国人被隔离,其中有逾3万人已获准回家。 马国曾于本月14日表明,马国政府将承担公民返马的费用,拒绝为非马国公民的人承担隔离费用。 “我们必须确定他们从何而来,对于来自高风险国家的旅客,卫生部将决定否批他们的申请。”
