International Students Under 'New Rules' Malaysian Immigration


"I want to go home NOW !!!" // "I want to come back to Malaysia for my studies" // "I want my passport back !!" // "What if police catch me?" // "I want vacation please!!".

Yes, those are the situation nowadays for international especially students. Since Malaysian Immigration Department change their policy about visa apply and renewal, 'The strangers' have a problem about this. I'm not sure if also happening with the workers. As I know as students here, I had this problem. You can refer further information about EMGS and so forth from Yahoo and others.

I deferred from my studies around May 2013 and supposed to be here in Malaysia on September 2013. I did not know about this new 'rules', and if so, I won't take differ studies. My visa expired around 1st week of May, so I had no problem when I left this country. Then, on third week of August, I emailed International Office in campus to inform that I'm ready to get back there. You see down here.


Then he explained to me clearly about several documents should I give to them to process my new visa approval letter. 



After I sent the documents needed, then I had to wait further notice from them. Wait and Wait. Wait and Wait again. Until I almost desperate, but I won't do that for my future studies. I searched and kept searching the information from any website in internet. I was thinking I'm in the gambling circumstances because I may win or lose my visa. I did read about EMGS and asked them, but then no reply. Then, I went directly email to my ICT dean to clarify my problem.


In this time, only two words that I always hear and see which are "wait and patient" because nothing else should I do. He was trying to make me settle down and keep in trust to the Registry Department. Thank you and I did that. My new semester started on September but I was stuck for several months until "little light" came with good news from International Office. Yeee my visa had done !!! \w/



What I learn from this situation



Don't desperate easily !!

In my opinion is very 'huge', I can't explain more about education. Education is everywhere. Education is how to educate people not only in knowledge but also in ethical and behaviour in daily life. Even some educated people act un-behave for them-self. I will fight for my rights to get the education. Don't desperate easily for anything which can break my future. Education is my weapon and my bullets to 'attack' you and get battle on 'war'. For those who are having the same problem, don't worry as long as you have reason for you stay here to studies, it wont take long.

Keep in trust

Trusting people are not easy as I drink water from the bottle. So what to do in this situation if I don't trust them at all to solve my problem, and I know they are professional, I thankfully for that. Therefore, there is limitation to trust people. I will not 'eat' any information from them before it's clear explained and I keep in touch with them to get the information further. Don't hear any gossip from untrusted party. Lastly, I would like to say 'Thank you very much for any guidance and help so far'.
