JOHOR BAHRU, June 12 — Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob wants the problem of defective escalator and autogate for Malaysian passport holders at the Customs, Immigration and Quarantine (CIQ) Complex at Bangunan Sultan Iskandar here to be settled immediately.
He said this after making a surprise visit to the CIQ Complex together with Johor Menteri Besar Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi this afternoon.
According to Ismail Sabri, the shortcomings should be rectified urgently for the benefit of Keluarga Malaysia and travellers from outside as it is one of the main gateways into the country.
