It was a subordinate court before it became the passport office for making passport to MALAYSIA. I still do not understand till today, why back then, we need the blue passport for Malaysia travel only & the red one for Malaysia & International. There were frequent incidents where travelers going out of SINgapore, brought the blue passport instead of the red one at Changi.
I think the Malaysians have the same thing, one passport for traveling here & one for International. Anybody know why that way?
