THE Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency (MMEA) will continue focusing on the Johor waters to thwart criminal activities such as the smuggling of migrants, drugs and contraband items.

The agency’s director-general Maritime Admiral Datuk Mohd Zubil Mat Som said this was following the reopening of various economic sectors including trading, shipping and agriculture.
