KOTA KINABALU: The Sabah government will continue to collaborate with China to facilitate the return of their citizens, says Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal.

The Chief Minister said although the state government had imposed a temporary suspension on all flights from China to Sabah, this was only to stop new arrivals to the state.

"And vice versa, if there are Malaysians from Sabah in China, who want to return home using a flight from China, we allow that. He also clarified that Chinese tourists who were already in Sabah and in good health could stay on, provided their visas were still valid. Liew, who is also state Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister, said Sabah Tourism Board was currently liasing with the China Consulate General in Kota Kinabalu, as well as Civil Aviation Administration of China , to ease the return of Chinese nationals from the state, estimated to be in the thousands.
