81 Malaysians stranded in Southern Philippines return

Malaysiakini

Eighty-one Malaysians who were stranded in the southern Philippines returned home yesterday, said Foreign Minister Hishammuddin Hussein.
He said all of them were flown home via a Royal Malaysian Air Force's (RMAF) Charlie C-130 aircraft which landed at Terminal 2 of the Kota Kinabalu International Airport (KKIA).
Five medical officers from the Health Ministry, as well as the RMAF, were on board to monitor the passengers.
“All of them are currently undergoing a 14-day quarantine at designated centres,” he said in a statement today.
They were stranded in the Philipines following the enforcement of curfew and lockdown in that country to curb the spread of Covid-19.
Hishammuddin (above) said all of them who had registered with the office of the Consulate-General of Malaysia in Davao City had been provided with the necessary assistance since March.
He also recorded his appreciation to the Malaysian Armed Forces especially the RMAF as well as the Philipines government which had helped facilitate the process of bringing home the affected Malaysians.
Meanwhile, RMAF in a separate statement said the C-130 aircraft departed from the airbase in Labuan at 10 am yesterday before arriving at the Zamboanga International Airport at noon.
The flight with all 81 Malaysians stranded in the southern Philipines then departed at 3.25 pm and arrived at the KKIA at 4.25 pm. - Mkini
