KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 15 — Malaysia could shorten or remove the mandatory quarantine order for fully vaccinated inbound visitors as it prepares to open the country’s borders after nearly two years of closure.
The National Recovery Council made the announcement after chairing its fourth meeting this morning.
Its chairman, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin, said the quarantine order waiver will be part of the mutual recognition of vaccine certificates already adopted by several countries.
“We were informed that the government is already considering opening its borders to fully-vaccinated visitors from certain countries without having to undergo quarantine,” Muhyiddin told reporters here.
“This is a positive development.”
