PUTRAJAYA: There is no announcement on travel restrictions for those from countries where the new variant of the Covid-19 virus is detected because the government already stops foreigners from entering Malaysia since the start of the pandemic, explains Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

The Defence Minister said the country’s borders remained closed to tourists and only diplomats and expatriates were allowed to enter the country.
