KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysia will repatriate its citizens from the northern and western regions of India amid a surge in COVID-19 cases and fatalities ...

Those returning will include home-based staff members from various Malaysian agencies and their dependents. All of them will have to undergo COVID-19 testing before leaving India and also upon arrival in Malaysia.

Hishammuddin added that other Malaysians in the northern and western regions of India who are keen on joining the repatriation flight should register with the Malaysian High Commission in New Delhi and the Malaysian Consulate General in Mumbai by 5pm India time on Friday. During the initial stage of the COVID-19 pandemic last year, Malaysia repatriated citizens from Wuhan in China, as well as Iran and Italy, said Hishammuddin.
