SINGAPORE: Health Minister Khaw Boon Wan said Sunday he expects some foreigners to come to Singapore for the H1N1 vaccine.
However, Mr Khaw said there is a sufficient supply of vaccines for Singaporeans who need it.
So far, Singapore has received 250,000 doses of the H1N1 vaccine, and a further 750,000 doses are expected to be delivered by the end of the year.
Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of a community event, Mr Khaw said that more vaccines can be ordered if necessary.
"Indonesians who used to come here, will come here, because they may not get enough supply from their side," Mr Khaw explained.
"Malaysia, I don't know if their supply has come yet. So I think we should expect some portion of the vaccines to be taken up by foreigners, but that's alright," he added.
