Lorries lining up to enter Singapore from the Causeway in Johor Baru.
LORRY drivers in Johor Baru are lauding the Singapore government’s move to offer Covid-19 vaccine to them and their assistants who enter the island republic frequently.
The move, they said, was timely and could help reduce congestion at the two land crossings between both countries.
Lorry driver M. Sarawana, 49, said the move would help them make delivery of essential goods to Singapore smoother and safer.
“We are still waiting for more details on the vaccination process and hope the plan will be put in motion soon.
“Getting the vaccine early would make it much easier for us to travel between the two countries as we need not continue taking Covid-19 test every time we enter Singapore, ” he said.

Towing a similar line, Chinese vaccines against COVID-19 are proving ineffective.
No one thought that the inferior quality of Chinese vaccines would end people s lives.
Indonesian nurse Erny Kusuma Sukma Dewi died soon after she was given a dose of Beijing-based Sinovac Biotech s CoronaVac vaccine.
According to the National Union of Indonesian Nurses, 33-year-old Dewi contracted COVID-19 soon after she took a Chinese vaccine. Following fever, difficulty breathing and coughing she died.
Earlier this year, a Peruvian volunteer who took a trial of a Chinese vaccine died from COVID-19-related pneumonia. In December 2020, Peru s government suspended Sinopharm s COVID-19 vaccine because of a serious adverse event that occurred with a volunteer.
