KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The government will not arbitrarily open the country’s borders to foreign travelers as permission for entry will depend on the Covid-19 situation in their country of origin, says Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Right now, he said the government only allowed those who were fully vaccinated to enter the country, but the borders are still closed for tourists.
