MAKE VISA-FREE TRAVEL PERMANENT

The Malaysia China Welfare Advisory Society has called for the visa-free policy between Malaysia and China to be made permanent. Its vice-president Teh Choon Jin said the tourism industry will benefit immensely from a permanent visa-free policy as Malaysia has witnessed a surge in tourist arrivals from China since the temporary initiation of the policy in December last year.
