LCCT in 'pandemonium', passengers forced into long queues


Passengers arriving at LCCT in Sepang had to endure long queues in cramped, uncomfortable conditions before they could clear the immigration checkpoint.

PETALING JAYA: Passengers arriving at the Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) in Sepang had to deal with long queues in cramped and uncomfortable conditions, mainly due to a bottleneck at the immigration gates on Sunday.

"It was absolute chaos. I wasn't sure what lines were going where and which were the queues for foreign and Malaysian passports," said 27-year-old lawyer Tharishni Arumugam, who was one among a thousand stuck at the airport.
