Why some under Second Home scheme told to go

SEVERAL participants of the Malaysia My Second Home programme had to be deported because they had used Malaysia as a base for illegal activities, Deputy Tourism Minister Datuk Zahid Hamidi said. 

He said this in reply to a supplementary question from M. Kulasegaran (DAP – Ipoh Barat) on why some participants were sent back or returned home voluntarily and whether this was because of bureaucratic reasons.
