Malaysian pilgrims urged to continue complying with Saudi govt's regulations


KANGAR: The government hopes that prospective Malaysian haj and umrah pilgrims this year will continue to maintain their exemplary track record in complying with the regulations and laws set by the Saudi Arabian government, thereby avoiding the risk of a temporary visa suspension, such as the one imposed on 14 other countries.

Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Religious Affairs) Datuk Dr Mohd Na'im Mokhtar said during his meeting with Saudi Arabia's Minister of Haj and Umrah Dr Tawfiq Fawzan Al-Rabiah, the latter had consistently commended the discipline and exemplary behaviour of Malaysian pilgrims, so this positive track record must be maintained.
