Wow, you know that this country is at a new low when a dirty and unhygienic country like Malaysia has to spray mosquito repellent on all cars entering and exiting Johor Bahru from Singapore. Sinkieland, thanks to the fucking PAP, is now the armpit of south east Asia. As if Hep, Dengue, TB, hand foot and mouth, etc outbreaks are not enough, we now have Zika. The Malaysians are laughing their ass off now. Sure, there is no litter on singapore streets, but what the fuck, we have every other disease under the book. The irony is that Malaysia, a country that most sinkies look down upon as a dirty country is now rightly taking drastic measures to prevent Zika from spreading from here to their shores. It should be the other way round. Its better to live with corruption and some crime in a country, then die from disease in country that supposed does not have either.
JOHOR BAHRU - Vehicles leaving and entering Singapore will need to be sprayed with mosquito repellent as part of the measures by the Johor Health Department to fight Zika virus infection, Bernama reported on Friday (Sept 2).
"The vehicles we are referring to include lorries, public buses, school buses, private cars and trains. This is to ensure that no mosquitoes with the virus are brought into the country via the vehicles," State Health and Environment Committee chairman Datuk Ayub Rahmat said in a statement in Johor Bahru.
The statement did not specify when the measures would take effect.
The announcement comes as Singapore said on Friday it had found 38 more people who had contracted Zika, raising to 189 the number infected with the mosquito-borne virus since the authorities reported the first locally transmitted case six days ago.
Ayub said the committee viewed the threat as serious as many Singaporeans frequented Johor while 200,000 to 300,000 locals travelled to the republic each day to work, according to Bernama.
The committee has also instructed local authorities and district officers to maintain cleanliness in areas frequented by Singaporeans such as restaurants and entertainment areas, Ayub said.
"The state government will monitor all action plans and the special meeting will be held again on Sept 29 to review the effectiveness of these strategies," he was quoted by Bernama as saying.
