Veterinary Dept lifts import ban on cows and buffaloes from Australia

PETALING JAYA: The temporary import ban on cows and buffaloes from Australia has been rescinded by the Veterinary Department (DVS).

Malaysia imposed the ban, which began on Aug 4, as a safety measure after allegations by the Indonesian authorities that there were signs of Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) infection in cows imported from Australia.
