The Malaysia-Singapore High-Speed Rail (HSR) project has been terminated due to a lack of agreement. The 350-kilometer rail network was expected to be completed by 2026 and cut travel time to 90 minutes.

#Netherlands #Amsterdam #Coronavirus #VACCINE

Criticism of the corona vaccination strategy is increasing in the Netherlands. Although around 175,000 vaccine doses from the manufacturers Pfizer and Biontech are already stored in a special warehouse in the east of the country,

This is not possible for logistical reasons. The timetable will not be changed for the time being, said a spokesman for the Ministry of Health.
