  "summary": "Datuk Seri Mohd Shuhaily Mohd Zain, director-general of the Malaysian Border Control and Protection Agency (AKPS), has stated that he will accept any decision made by the government regarding his actions in a viral video from Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA). The video appears to show Shuhaily angrily confronting another individual.\n\nAccording to Shuhaily, the incident occurred during a limited enforcement operation targeting foreign touts at KLIA Terminal 1. The operation was prompted by increasing complaints and allegations involving foreign touts, as well as rising seizures at baggage inspection points.\n\nShuhaily has expressed hope that any decision taken by the government regarding him would not affect AKPS personnel. He has informed the highest levels of the government and the ministry about the matter and is prepared to take responsibility for what happened.",
