Consulate-general says the offences include overstaying and working without valid permits.
One hundred and fifty Indonesian nationals were deported from Johor Bahru yesterday, according to the Indonesian consulate-general in the region. The group consisted of 100 men, 48 women, a 15-year-old boy, and a one-year-old girl. The deportation took place at the Pasir Gudang international ferry terminal, in collaboration with the immigration department.
Most of the deportees were found guilty of immigration offences, primarily overstaying their visas and working without proper permits. The Indonesian consulate-general emphasized that the deportation process is not merely administrative but also serves as an important step towards rehabilitation and reintegration of the individuals upon their return to Indonesia.
