KAPAR (Malaysia), May 28 (NNN-Bernama) — The Malaysian Home Ministry (KDN) has questioned the actions of United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) of providing refugee identification cards to several Indonesian nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Its Minister Hamzah Zainuddin said the ministry found several Indonesians in possession of UNHCR refugee cards during enforcement actions conducted by the Malaysian Immigration Department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHow can the UNHCR issue such cards arbitrarily, until those who possess them seem to be able to somehow stay in the country legally,\u201d he said during a media conference after the enforcement operation at Meru Market near here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The operation saw 704 foreigners inspected, 51 immigrants detained on various immigration-related offences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the system failure at the Kelana Jaya Immigration Office reported by a news portal today, Hamzah said it not only occurred at the office but immigration offices in other locations as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI want to inform everyone actually we use this (online) but it\u2019s an old system. So when an old system is overwhelmed, it will jam slightly. That\u2019s why we have awarded a new company for a system and they are conducting (the process) and insya-Allah in 2024 it will all be completed, and we can use a better more sophisticated system,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
