KUALA LUMPUR: The Ministry of Health (MOH) will monitor the implementation of the Periodic Commuting Arrangement (PCA) scheme for cross-border travel ...

: The Ministry of Health will monitor the implementation of the Periodic Commuting Arrangement scheme for cross-border travel between Malaysia and Singapore, as well as re-evaluate its implementation and the risk of infection from time to time.

“Under this scheme, those who have stayed for at least three consecutive months in the country where the individual works, can return to the country of origin for the purpose of a short leave. The leave period is around two to four weeks and is subject to agreement and resolution between the employee and employer.

However, he said, while waiting for the test results, individuals living in Johor can undergo home quarantine while those living outside of Johor would be sent to quarantine stations allocated by the Malaysian government. Meanwhile, he said for Singaporeans or Singaporean permanent residents who re-entered Malaysia after undergoing a short leave in their home country under the scheme, it was necessary to submit proof of owning a “My Travel Pass’’, issued by the Malaysian Immigration Department.

“The quarantine period for individuals under this category is based on the agreement reached between Malaysia and Singapore, specifically under the PCA scheme.”
