China's Consul-General in KK wants state govt to come up with plan to help stranded China tourists return home

KOTA KINABALU:: The China Consul-General's Office here wants the state government to take responsibility and formulate an action plan to coordinate flights for the return of thousands of tourists stuck in Sabah following the state's decision to bar the entry of China nationals following the coronavirus outbreak.

In a statement issued late Sunday (Feb 2), the office said that the state’s decision had left many China nationals holidaying during the lunar new year here to be stranded because of flights between China and Sabah had been greatly reduced or grounded.
