PM reminds customs, immigration personnel to service with integrity 

KUALA LUMPUR, April 6 — Members of the Royal Malaysian Customs Department and Immigration Department have been urged to carry out their duties with full discipline and integrity.

The call was made by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim when making a surprise visit to the Penang International Airport (LTAPP) yesterday.

In a Facebook post today, Anwar said he also wants all concerned members to ensure that there are no shortcomings, which could cause billions of ringgit in losses to the country.

In the same message, the prime minister said his visit was to see for himself the management and facilities of the airport as well as the deployment of law enforcement personnel, especially those from the customs and immigration departments. 

Anwar, who was briefed on Penang’s development in Komtar in conjunction with his visit to the state yesterday, was also reported to have said the expansion of LTAPP was among the issues raised in the briefing.
