KUALA LUMPUR, March 7 (Xinhua) -- Investors or groups of expatriates will be eligible for special passes starting April 1 to enable them to stay longer in the country for business and investment purposes, Home Minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said.
The special passes will be a single window method to facilitate the entry of those who qualify and the passes will be issued electronically, Saifuddin told the country's lower house parliament on Thursday in response to a question on the government's efforts to improve and simplify such procedures.
"We will issue new passes only for investors, to enable easier entry and ease of doing business is what we want to see. The faster we process their applications, the easier it is for them to accept the business climate in our country," he said.
