Miti letter 'rejection' due to people misusing it to balik kampung ahead of Aidiladha, says Ismail Sabri

JEMPOL (Bernama): Interstate travel approval letters issued by the Trade and Industry Ministry (Miti) for business and work purposes was disallowed for four days effective today as certain individuals were found to have abused them to return to their hometowns for the upcoming Aidiladha holiday period.
Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob

"I think everyone would have started their holidays today (in conjunction with Aidiladha)... during the last Hari Raya Aidilfitri, hundreds of thousands travelled interstate with various reasons, including using the interstate travel letter meant for work.
