: The procurement of 40 cutting-edge baggage scanning machines, amounting to RM40.72 million, will strengthen security controls at the main entry points across the country, said Customs director-general Datuk Anis Rizana Mohd Zainudin.
Anis Rizana said this to reporters after the launch of a scanning machine by Finance Minister II Datuk Seri Amir Hamzah Azizan here today. She said the process covers maintenance costs, ensuring that damaged machines are promptly repaired, thereby enhancing overall efficiency. She said that the installation of 40 new baggage scanning machines has brought the total number of scanners in operation at entry points throughout Malaysia to 66 units, with a total procurement value of RM84.30 million.
Also, the department foiled an attempt to bring in cash totalling RM65,160.00 and 5.252 kg of heroin, valued at RM492,375.00, through the Immigration, Customs, Quarantine, and Security Complex in Padang Besar, Perlis, in two separate incidents in June and August, she said.
