If you intend to bring plants from Peninsular Malaysia into Singapore please take note. According a news report in the NST (Dec 1, 2007 - page 6), with effect from Dec 1, 2007, travellers coming from Peninsular Malaysia will not be allowed to bring plants with potting medium into Singapore.
According to Singapore Agri-Food and Veterinary Authority (AVA) travellers are allowed to bring up to three (3) plants or 250 gm seeds per person, from PM without an import permit from AVA and phytosanitary certificate. However the plants must be free from potting medium such as soil, sphagnum moss, peat moss and potting mix.
Travellers who brought in plants in excess of the quantity allowed must obtained an import permit as well as a phytosanitary certificate and those violated the regulations would have their plants confiscated and destroyed.
Fauzi please warn your Singapore buyers.
So be warned!!! Don't play play with Singapore officials.
