Malaysia: KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia

Malaysia Dept: The plan underscores a surge in fears about public safety following an armed intrusion by a Philippine clan last month that has left at least 75 people dead in Malaysia's eastern Sabah state. It also highlights concerns that the intruders received help from some Filipinos who resettled in Sabah over the decades and became Malaysian citizens, according to Vancouver Sun. Najib did not say how many people would be affected or when the relocation might occur. He said it would initially involve Sabah's eastern seaboard, which can be reached within an hour by boat from southern Philippine islands that have been wracked by a decades-long Muslim insurgency and KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia - Malaysia's government announced plans Monday to relocate villagers in parts of Borneo vulnerable to intruders from the restive southern Philippines. Prime Minister Najib Razak announced the plan as part of measures to bolster security that also include increasing military forces in Sabah. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
