Malaysia’s inclusion on travel advisory follows concerns about potential kidnapping or hostage-taking in certain areas of eastern Sabah.

KUALA LUMPUR: The foreign ministry is urging the United States to immediately remove Malaysia from the ‘K’ list and will summon the American envoy here for clarification.

The ministry noted that Malaysia’s inclusion was announced in a travel advisory issued by the US State Department on April 9. The ministry said the new travel advisory lacked objectivity and did not reflect the reality on the ground, particularly the security situation in eastern Sabah which remained safe and protected for tourists.

“Further, the number of kidnapping incidents has dropped significantly to almost nil. Eastern Sabah continues to attract world-class divers,” the statement said.
