LOCAL NEWS- IIlegals must go home

KUALA LUMPUR- Home Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Radzi Sheikh Ahmad has announced that illegal immigrants should return to their respective countries during the Hari Raya and Deepavali celebrations, before the authorities launch a nationwide crackdown.

This however should not be misconstrued as a grant of amnesty. "If they get caught leaving the country, its tough luck." he states.




Despite legal restrictions facing them either way several illegal immigrants have found a way out of this conundrum.



"We are going to pretend to be electric appliances." says one Bunga Hariyanto from Indonesia.




The illegal "aliens" in Klang Valley have decided to mail themselves home, as it seems to them that this is the only viable option.

"If we stay, we get arrested. If we leave, we also get arrested. This is the only way we can get back without being caught."


They are currently scouring the city for large boxes and smaller ones for their children. "An LG refrigerator box can fit all three of us" says Heri Adikesuma, pointing to his petite wife, and 3- year-old child. "It is a tight fit, but we all can wrap our legs behind our necks, like scarves."

Radzi is offering those who voluntarily leave with three complimentary return passes for their immediate family, for entry through Port Klang only.This is in line with the family first policy of Klang.
