One of the world’s busiest land checkpoints is set to become less congested as Malaysians traveling to Singapore on factory buses will be able to clear immigration through QR code.
Under the new system, workers on factory buses will generate a QR code from a mobile application and officials will scan the code for each traveler. To be implemented in June, the new system applies to immigration complexes linked to the causeways between Singapore and Malaysia’s Johor, Channel News Asia reported, citing Johor’s committee on works, transportation and infrastructure.
