KOTA BHARU, Jan 25 — The Malaysian Immigration Department has stressed that there will be no compromise in the discharge of duties at the country’s entry points, including practices such as the ‘hand-raising’ culture that could jeopardise national security.

Immigration Department director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban said based on its records, no official reports had been received regarding allegations of such practices at the Immigration, Customs, Quarantine and Security (ICQS) Complex along the Malaysia-Thailand border, including during peak periods.
