No second mission to bring more Palestinians to Malaysia, says Mohamed Khaled


KUALA LUMPUR: There will be no second mission to bring more Palestinians to Malaysia, said Defence Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Khaled Nordin.

"We need to understand that while 70,000 Palestinians can enter and stay in Egypt, the country cannot support all of them. Therefore, we help as many as we can,” he told a press conference following the simultaneous opening of the Umno Wanita, Pemuda and Puteri general assembly on Wednesday (Aug 21) evening.
