Liow: Security at airports, train stations, ports beefed up

PUTRAJAYA: Security at key entry points such as airports, train stations and ports in Malaysia has been beefed up as precautionary measures against terrorist attacks, said Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai (pic).

The Transport Minister said Malaysia had already begun tightening its security in 2015, when intelligence revealed a possible planned attack in Kuala Lumpur tourist street Jalan Alor.

"Airports and train stations are public areas and we always pay close attention to these places.”

“We have put in more surveillance equipment and personnel and will continue to strengthen security," said Liow at a press conference here on Monday.
