Not sure why the Johore Chief Minister visited the Msian vessel in Sgp border as it was the federal gov that started this territorial spat.
Confusion!

SINGAPORE: Singapore Minister for Foreign Affairs Dr Vivian Balakrishnan said on Sunday (Jan 13) that he had “an open and candid discussion” with Malaysian Minister of Economic Affairs Mohamed Azmin Ali, who is in Singapore to discuss bilateral issues.
Mr Azmin’s visit follows Singapore’s decision on Saturday to postpone joint ministerial committee talks on Iskandar, after Johor Chief Minister Osman Sapian made an “unauthorised visit” to Malaysian vessel Pedoman, which was in Singapore waters.
“Had a good meeting of minds over dinner with Malaysian Minister of Economic Affairs Dato’ Seri Azmin Ali this evening,” said Dr Balakrishnan in a Facebook post.
“We had an open and candid discussion of the issues currently confronting us. We reaffirmed that there are far more opportunities for Malaysia and Singapore to work together, especially at this time of global economic transformation,” he added.
Mr Azmin said on Sunday that it is in the interest of both Singapore and Malaysia for both countries to maintain strong ties.
“We are each other’s closest neighbour connected by deep historical ties and family bonds. Let's work things out for the well-being and future of our people,” Mr Azmin said in a Twitter post of his meeting with Dr Balakrishnan."
Enough sensible words had been uttered by both Ministers.
Totally logical.
Let's see if the deeds will match the words!!
Peace n harmony to Sgp/Msia n Msia/Sgp!!
