Immigration Warning

Malaysia welcomes bona fide tourists, but not hippies.

You are therefore advised at all times to dress, behave and live decently in hotels as becoming a bona fide tourist.

If you are found dressing in shabby, dirty or indecent clothes, or living in temporary of make-shift shelters you will be deemed to be a hippie. Your visit pass will be cancelled and you will be ordered to leave Malaysia within 24 hours failing which you will be prosecuted under immigration laws. Furthermore you will not be permitted to enter Malaysia again.

Director General of Immigration, Malaysia
