Malacañang respects Malaysia’s ban of Filipino entry

Malacañang respects the decision of Malaysia to ban the entry of Filipinos in its country due to the high number of cases of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the Philippines.

According to Presidential Spokesperson Harry Roque, it is the right of Malaysia to declare such decisions for their own safety.

“Well, that’s a sovereign decision, who will be allowed to enter one’s territory. I’m not saying we’re happy, I’m saying na we regret the decision but we respect the sovereign decision of Malaysia.”
