PUTRAJAYA, Oct 11 — The construction of new quarters at the Langkap Immigration Detention Depot in Perak and Papar, Sabah, under Budget 2027 will improve the welfare and operational readiness of Immigration Department (JIM) personnel in carrying out enforcement duties.
Immigration director-general Datuk Zakaria Shaaban said more conducive residential facilities would not only enhance the well-being of officers and their families, but also help them focus fully on their responsibilities in law enforcement and immigration detainee management.
He said personnel welfare was not merely about providing facilities, but also formed the foundation of an enforcement organisation’s readiness and effectiveness.
