Serious question: Food coming in from Johor

[steffychun]

Got scolded for bringing in a cooked piece of chicken (just one small thigh piece) bought from Johor by the PAP Customs. Since when can you not bring in cooked food?

Each day we have hundreds of thousands of Malaysians commuting to Spore. If the concern was with health then why is there no health screening?

It's Chinese New Year & the authorities know that Sporeans are going to Malaysia to buy their goodies. A few weeks ago I visited JB & man was it very, very crowded at the immigration complex.

With the prices in Spore so high & the low ringgit expect more Sporeans to shop in Malaysia.

No hygiene to begin with.

I know someone who once tried to bring bak-kwa into Brunei. Was prevented from doing so by their customs officers. They gave her a changkul, escorted her to a patch of grass outside the room, instructed her to dig a hole and bury the package of meat in the ground!

Cheers!
