KOTA KINABALU: Temporary passes will be issued to some 600,000 immigrants living for decades in Sabah from June 1 next year, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

The group comprises current holders of IMM13 issued to Filipino refugees who fled to Sabah in the 1970s, economic migrants given Burung-Burung cards in the 1980s, and those who registered under the Federal Special Task Force Banci (census) cards in the 1990s.
