PETALING JAYA: The Malaysia My Second Home (MM2H) scheme has raised national security concerns due to its poor enforcement of background checks on the programme’s participants. “An audit check on 59 MM2H participants found that their applications were accompanied by a LOGC each. “So, there is no way to verify if the dependents are free of criminal records in their home countries. “The minimum fixed income requirement abroad of RM10,000 per month has never been reviewed since the MM2H programme started in 2002,” said the report. Another identified weakness was the non-compliance with programme rules as participants and their dependents were found to be working in Malaysia.
