担忧马国政府边界措施再U转 大批马劳越堤回国
听到马国政府宣布,强制要求于本周五起入境该国的所有国民和外籍人士入住隔离中心,今早已有大批马劳从柔佛长堤步行通关回国,一度形成长长人龙。
尽管马来西亚国家天灾管理机构于昨晚(22日)发文宣布,24日起通过陆路从我国入境马国,新马民众都无需强制入住隔离中心,但依旧有大批大马人宁愿越过长堤,步行通关,只为了能够回家。
一些马国客工反映,不少人原本就打算今早返马,加上担心马国政府措施临时U转,才选择在今天越堤入境。
由于许多人纷纷趁今日通关,也导致长堤内出现常常的人龙,从新山苏丹依斯干达关卡、关税及检疫大厦延伸至柔佛长堤,惟在今早10时45分后才人龙才逐渐舒缓。
马国政府昨日(23日)指出,从新山关卡和新马第二通道入境该国的马国公民和新加坡公民,自7月24日起,入境者都无需被强制隔离入住隔离中心。
然而,仍阻止不了许多马劳纷纷回国的心,因为马国政府才在周二宣布,强制要求于本周五起入境该国的所有国民和外籍人士入住隔离中心,不再居家隔离,且入住者还需自行缴付入隔离费用。
