Umrah: Malaysia still discussing with Saudi Arabia on Covid-19 vaccine discrimination, says Khairy

PUTRAJAYA, Oct 20 — Malaysia is still discussing with the Saudi Arabian government on not to impose vaccine discrimination against its individuals wanting to perform the Umrah pilgrimage in the kingdom, says Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin.

The Saudi Arabian government was previously reported as accepting only four types of vaccines, namely, Pfizer-BioNTech, AstraZeneca, Johnson & Johnson and Moderna for individuals wanting to go to the kingdom. Meanwhile, Khairy said the MySejahtera application would have a new feature to enable individuals needing the booster dose to apply for it from next month in meeting the condition set by other countries including for performing Umrah and Haj.
