PETALING JAYA: The movement control order (MCO) does not prevent Malaysians abroad from returning home, says Foreign Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Hishammuddin Hussein (pic).

The clarification comes after over 270 Malaysians were said to have been barred by Indian authorities from catching their flights from India back to Malaysia, with some posting pleas for help on social media.
