Malaysia's prime minister has announced a waiver of visa fees for Chinese nationals to boost the country's competitiveness in attracting Chinese tourists.
According to the New Straits Times yesterday, home minister Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the implementation date for the move would be made known soon.
He was quoted as having said that visas still needed to be issued for national security purposes: “Although we want to draw tourists to our shores, we cannot compromise on security.”
