One driver said the number of employees at the collection centre should be increased to cope with the demand.

JOHOR BAHRU – With less than a week before the implementation of the Vehicle Entry Permit for Singapore-registered vehicles, many vehicle owners, including Malaysians who work in Singapore, are worried about not being able to meet the Oct 1 deadline.

“Currently, I leave Johor Bahru by 2am daily as I need to prepare to open my shop by 3am. The only choice I have is to take the bus if my application is not successful by next week.” “There are at least 100 queue numbers after me and some have been told to come back the next day,” Mr Adnan said. “Most of us come to Johor to shop, eat and take a vacation, which I believe has helped local businesses. It will not be fair to them to have to suffer the consequences of this decision,” he said.

Meanwhile, Johor Indian Muslim Entrepreneurs Association secretary Hussein Ibrahim said the ministry should give Singaporeans more time to get the VEP tag. Two additional locations for the installation of the radio frequency identification tags for the VEP were opened on Sept 22.
