PETALING JAYA: Malaysia is in talks with Singapore and Brunei to open the borders to the citizens of these countries, says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.
The Senior Minister said the government, in principle, had agreed to give permission to Singaporeans and Bruneians to enter Malaysia without applying for approval from the Immigration Department.“However, the permission depends on the same flexibility given to Malaysians by the Singapore and Brunei governments.
“So the decision will now depend on the outcome of the talks. We will wait and see, ” said Ismail Sabri. Ismail Sabri acknowledged that under the MCO, the immigration offices were closed and those with expired visas were only required to show their airline tickets when leaving the country.
