KL urged to move immigration office<\/p>\n
SINGAPORE (Reuters): Singapore has warned Malaysia that rail
\npassengers will face problems if Malaysia does not shift its
\nimmigration operation in the city state, Singapore's Ministry of
\nHome Affairs said yesterday.<\/p>\n
It said in a statement that Singapore had told Malaysia that
\n\"rail passengers will face difficulties and inconvenience if
\nMalaysian immigration insists on executing their duties at
\nTanjong Pagar Railway Station\" after Friday.<\/p>\n
Malaysia has thus far refused Singapore's request that both
\ncountries' immigration operations move from Tanjong Pagar in
\ndowntown Singapore to a new station just across from Malaysia.
\nSingapore plans to move its own operations there effective on
\nSaturday.<\/p>\n
The Malaysian state-owned railway Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM)
\nowns about 200 hectares of Singapore land under a 1918 agreement
\ndrawn up by the British that gave it the land for as long as it
\noperated train services.<\/p>",
