SEPANG: The newly-formed Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS), is not only tasked to strengthen security at the country’s land, sea and air borders and gateways, but also to make the movement of goods and travellers more seamless and faster, says Deputy Prime Minister II Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.
The latest entity under the Home Ministry unifies several agencies comprising the Customs Department, Immigration Department and the police among others, under a single chain of command.
