In celebration of the Chinese New Year, Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) exchanged gifts with Malaysia’s immigration department
In celebration of the Chinese New Year, Singapore’s Immigration and Checkpoints Authority (ICA) exchanged gifts with Malaysia’s immigration department, reinforcing their continued partnership. The exchange was shared with the public via ICA’s official Facebook page.
Photos posted by the ICA showed the exchange of festive gift hampers and cakes, with the cake believed to have been sourced from SDS Bakery & Cafe, located at Johor Bahru City Square. ICA expressed gratitude to their Malaysian counterparts at the Bangunan Sultan Iskandar Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine (CIQ) complex, which is situated across the Causeway. A message accompanying the post read, “ICA looks forward to continuing our strong partnership and ensuring smooth trade and safe travels at our land borders.”
This exchange is part of a tradition between the two agencies, as it marks the second time in recent months that gifts have been swapped. In August 2024, Malaysia’s Department of Immigration had presented a cake to ICA to celebrate Singapore’s 59th birthday, which was reciprocated by ICA with a cake for Malaysia’s 67th birthday later that same month.
