KUCHING:
Sarawak is seeking clarification from the federal government regarding the delegation of authority concerning the Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) programme.

State tourism, creative industry and performing arts minister Abdul Karim Rahman Hamzah, said his ministry had yet to receive a detailed explanation.

“I have been informed about the delegation of authority over the MM2H programme to Sabah and Sarawak. I just want clarification on what this entails,” he said after the launch of the 2024 Rainforest Youth Summit here.

Karim said he had been informed that there would be a meeting between minister of tourism, arts and culture Tiong King Sing and Sarawak premier Abang Johari Openg in about a week to address the issue.

Earlier, Tiong had indicated that new regulations for the MM2H programme would be approved by the Cabinet and details would be announced soon.

The programme, introduced in 2002 to allow foreigners to buy property and reside in Malaysia, was temporarily suspended in August 2020 for a thorough review and evaluation by the home and the tourism, arts and culture ministries.
