Many Malaysians with jobs in Singapore tried to get into the city-state ahead of a travel ban which will be put in place between March 18 and 31.  All Malaysians will be barred from travelling abroad. Foreign tourists and visitors will also be banned from entering Malaysia during the 2-week period.  Traffic on the causeway linking Malaysia and Singapore started to build up after the order was issued on March 16.
