Insight - Driving home a message on MM2H


Education facilities: The education sector has also benefited from MM2H applicants, many of whom send their children to the various international schools and colleges throughout the country.

THE global pandemic that has restricted the movement of visitors and activities has put on hold most economic activities throughout the world.

The crucial part in containing the pandemic for the country has been by reducing the movement of people, encouraging physical distancing and to focus on restricting incoming visitors, as well as closing its borders to limit the potential spread of the virus.

The federal government has given a directive for a temporary freeze on the MM2H programme to reduce the number of foreigners entering the country.
