Tabung Haji suspends licence of haj pilgrimage operator


KUALA LUMPUR: Lembaga Tabung Haji (TH) has suspended the licence of Emraz Travel & Tours Sdn Bhd, a haj pilgrimage operator in a move to protect the welfare of prospective pilgrims.

TH said in a statement that the decision was taken following several public complaints regarding the umrah services provided by the company.

"Prospective pilgrims who choose to perform haj through a private package can still choose from another 22 licensed companies, including TH's subsidiary TH Travel & Services Sdn Bhd," according to the statement.

According to TH, the institution constantly monitors the performance of licensed haj pilgrimage operators including umrah services.
