KUANTAN: It is still not necessary to issue an order to bring back Malaysians from Sudan at this stage, says Foreign Minister Datuk Saifuddin Abdullah. He said the situation in the country was still under control and he hoped the unrest in Khartoum would end and calm would return soon. Saifuddin said that about 150 Malaysians were still in Sudan, including around 109 students, and they had been advised to avoid visiting areas near the riots. “We told parents not to worry and panic at the situation as the latest reports from representatives there said the situation is under control. “The Attorney Generals of both countries have met last year and in the Tuesday meeting, I hope we could at least obtain a timeframe on the water agreement,” he added.
