very good initiative, however, one issue...how would travelers keep track on the number of days they are entitled to stay WITHOUT OVERSTAYING........have all this being thought through??????

The disruption in the system also affected auto-lanes for departing and arriving passengers across all terminals at Changi Airport. Motorists entering Singapore via the Woodlands or Tuas Checkpoints reported waiting in queues with no reprieve in sight.

More FT coming. Later illegal ?

No problem. Plenty of space at Ridout Road and Anziar home😂.

Fantastic! Another great accomplishment by the PAP govt once again. This is why the PAP govt is ranked the most effective in the world.❤❤

However, other comments suggest that the responsibility for identifying and resolving the problem should be left to the ICA, and that the officers working tirelessly to address the issue should not be blamed.

Several netizens have stated that this level of disruption is not acceptable for Singapore as a developed country, and that the world’s number one airport should not have such a significant blunder.

No country can be completely efficient with no delays. If we don't have a single delay the airport is basically run by robots. So don't get too annoyed with some breakdowns. Respect ICA officers they are protecting our borders.

Rubbish. I took over 45 minutes to enter Singapore . Won’t be doing that ever again.

Probably you came before the feature was rolled out in early May as such missed the faster clearance.
