The Sultan Azlan Shah Airport in Ipoh urgently needs a better Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) system to accommodate the rising number of passengers and visitors.

Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir said the current customs and immigration service could not handle the influx of passengers which was gradually increasing.
