Dear Mrs Tay,

My dad could not clear leave at any other time except the 31st of May. So that morning we packed all our things and headed for malacca. When we arrived at the second link,I was taken aback. There was an eerie silence. There was no jam. There were only 3 cars. We cleared the immigration in less than 5 minutes. Evrything was strangely quiet. When we hit the highway, the same thing happened, There were hardly any Singapore cars. We felt a liitle scared. Johor is known to be crime-infested. If our car broke down, there would be no Singapore cars to hail for help. We finally arrived in malacca in less than 3 hours. It was a smooth journey.
