All 29 former SMRT bus drivers from China who took part in last week's illegal strikes have been repatriated, said the Home Affairs Ministry.

They were placed on flights on Sunday between 12.15am and 4.35pm.

A statement said "they were co-operative and the process took place without incident".

Chinese embassy officials, as well as SMRT staff, assisted in the exercise.
