Malaysian officials must be more 'civilised', says ex-refugee

Hassan al-Kontar in 2018 when he was stuck at the klia2 terminal, and in July this year, enjoying his freedom in Canada.

“The immigration officers and police in the detention centre should be civilised. They should care about human rights,” he told FMT. He was stuck at the airport in limbo, unable to return to his war-torn homeland of Syria, and without the papers to enter Malaysia. A former insurance agent, he now sets his sights on helping other refugees achieve the same freedom he now enjoys.

He should know for a fact that, trying to be a smartass with his comments that are not smart, just makes him an ass...☻☻😂

Why highlight this? Malice?

Yes. Be civilized like your country Syria and Bashar

If he is a blue eye syrian girl immediately she would have granted stay into Malaysia.. sorry bro.. too bad ur male..

No doubt Malaysian immigration detention centres may yet need a lot of improvement But which developed country is comparing Malaysia with? America? Yes, go there without a passport and see if he likes it better living in a cage like an animal in zoo.

You run away from your country...where you should fight for your freedom there. Now you want to talk curry about us. Ungrateful MF

Oh yeahhh...the entire universe knows Malaysian is much better than Syria

If you think Canada is good for you, by all means, go!

That is a common sick of global immegresion officers throughout the world. That is the way they treat foriegners. Do the countries provide foriegners with documents or without a space to voice out their basic Human Rights? This is something to be voice out.

Did he leave his mom & dad, brothers & sisters, other family members & friends in Syria just to save his own skin, then lived off Malaysians for free for 7 months & now ranting about how terrible Malaysians are? Good riddance.

Quite surprised by the responses here. Am not surprised he was treated rudely by those officers. That's what happens If you hire guys who barely passed their SPM

Look at how we treated the Rohingya

The Whitey there will kick your Ass there just bear sometime you'll know.

'more civilised'? the authority gave you food FOR FREE, offered you to become a refugee here, and the most obvious thing, allowed you to live in the airport for months while using the services there FOR FREE. Be honest, you just wanted to go to Canada

Not to long ago

We call ourselves a Muslim country? This is very embarassing 😭

That is something most people can agree. Thank you for the Canadians to be kind enough to sponsor him. Hope he has a better life there and I think we will. His beef is with Malaysian govt officials (as we all know) and the refugee system (that jails 12y/o boy and 4month old baby)

thank goodness you're gone. human rights
