The government of Malaysia imposed a travel ban on citizens of Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Pakistan and Nepal on May 5 this year to contain the transmission of coronavirus.
To prevent the contamination of the delta variant of coronavirus which was first identified in India, the Malaysian government also issued a temporary ban on flights to and from India.
