3 Oct 2022 - Passport Renewal approved in a day!

Just few months back, there were so much news about passport renewal taking up to 3 months before it's ready for collection.  It seems like things have changed and it's now a lot more efficient.  I applied for my passport renewal yesterday, which was a Sunday, and today evening, I received an email saying it's ready for collection!  The reason could be either those who wanted to apply for passport had already done so in the past few months, or the entire verification process has now been streamlined.  Regardless, it's good news to everyone. :-)
