Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the border between Malaysia and Singapore is not fully reopened, save for exceptional cases.
As a result, many Malaysians and their family members working or staying in Singapore have been apart for months.
An initiative called 'We Reunite Love' was organised by property developer R&F Princess Cove, where 20 families got to see their loved ones by boarding a yacht.

According to their Facebook post, the families have been separated for more than 200 days.
The yacht sailed from R&F Princess Cove in Johor to the middle of the sea, as close as possible to Singapore's waters.
