Malaysia is reopening its borders
Malaysia will reopen its borders to international travelers on April 1 after more than two years. Visitors who have been vaccinated twice against the coronavirus will be allowed to enter the Southeast Asian country without quarantine from this point on, according to the ORF. The prerequisites are a negative PCR test before departure and a negative antigen test after arrival. From April, almost all of the CoV restrictions still in force in Malaysia will also be lifted. Only the mask requirement will not be lifted yet, said the head of government. Although almost 30.000 new infections are currently being recorded daily due to the contagious Omicron variant, 99 percent of the cases are mild or asymptomatic, reported the Malaysian newspaper "The Star". Almost 98 percent of the population has now been vaccinated twice.
