PETALING JAYA: Malaysia will tighten border security following the recent spate of militant and terrorist activities in neighbouring countries, said Defence Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein (pic).

"This is because of the incidents that have taken place in three of our neighbours including the bombing at a hospital in Bangkok, another bombing in Kampung Melayu, Jakarta, and the conflict between Filipino forces and militants in Marawi City, Mindanao," he said in a statement on Saturday.
