Singaporeans in Malaysia make the journey home to vote in Presidential Election

Singaporean Greg Low, a Johor resident of about 12 years, is spearheading a carpooling initiative.  

“We say what time we want to take a car together, and wait at which part of Johor, and from there we find a convenient way to go back to Singapore,” said the 42-year-old, who is the voluntary administrator of a Facebook page that connects Singaporeans living in Malaysia.

“We plan to carpool (because) if we were to take the bus, it’s too troublesome.”

The group is planning to set off at 9am on Polling Day, saying they are familiar with traffic conditions and are confident of reaching their polling stations in time to vote.
