PUTRAJAYA, Dec 24 — International students studying in private educational centres will now be allowed to enter Malaysia starting on January 1, the federal government said today.

Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the only country whose students excluded from entering Malaysia is the United Kingdom, amid concerns over a new coronavirus strain.

“Students in this category include those in language centres, skills centres, training centres, tuition centres, and mind development centres registered under the Education Ministry,” he said during his press conference.
