Kerajaan mahu hantar pulang pelarian, tunggu data awal pendaftaran, kata Saifuddin

The Malaysian government is eager to repatriate illegal immigrants, awaiting initial data from the Documented Registration of Refugees (DPR) program, according to Minister of Domestic Affairs Saifuddin Nasution Ismail. Speaking at a media briefing in Putrajaya, he stated that the DPR program is expected to receive initial data in the fourth quarter of the year.

This program aims not only to involve Myanmar refugees but also all recognized refugees in the country. "If they are recognized refugees, they will certainly be among the first group we will manage the repatriation," he said, according to Bernama. Earlier reports indicated that the Domestic Affairs Ministry, through immigration, is conducting the DPR program to manage this group systematically, in line with National Security Council Resolution No 23 (Semakan 2023).

The ministry explained that this program was established to enable the government to obtain accurate, complete, and verifiable biometric and identity information on individuals in the refugee category.
