Parents with kids schooling across borders only need letters from school when travelling, not police


PUTRAJAYA: Parents who have to send their children who are schooling in different districts or states only need to show letters issued by the school at police roadblocks, says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

The Senior Minister (Security) said that parents do not need to get police permission in these situations.

“The technical committee on the movement control order has agreed that police permission is not needed when travelling for this purpose.

“Parents can just show the letter issued by schools on their children’s enrolment to the police manning roadblocks, ” he said on Thursday (Feb 25).

Ismail Sabri said he had spoken to the police leadership on this, and that they had informed district police stations on the matter.
