Are both of the sentences correct?

The tourists, 10 of whom are from Singapore, are visiting Malaysia for the first time.

Both are probably correct, but I much prefer the first. The second sounds a bit stuffy.

Just out of curiosity, do Singapore and Malaysia have an open border? Can people in Singapore travel freely into Malaysia? If not then they are stuck in a very small space unless they can afford to travel by plane or ship.

They have a common border.

What I mean by open border is how easy it is to cross. Like do they need a passport? A Visa? Or just an ID?
