Immigration proposes RM1,000 fine for lost passports

PUTRAJAYA: The Immigration Department proposed that a fine of RM1,000 be imposed on those who lose their passport for the third time.

Director-general Datuk Seri Mustafar Ali said since Malaysian passports were among the most sought-after passports in the world, the government was now considering a heavier penalty on lost passports to thwart would-be forgers.
