Inform before holding your events, Kelantan tells organisers
Deputy menteri besar Fadzli Hassan said all events, including health-related programmes, must be held in an orderly manner and in accordance with existing procedures and regulations. KOTA BHARU : The Kelantan government has reminded all parties to inform the local authorities and relevant agencies before organising their programmes to avoid confusion, misunderstandings and negative perceptions among the public. Deputy menteri besar Fadzli Hassan said all events, including health-related programmes, must be held in an orderly manner and in accordance with existing procedures and regulations. He was referring to the organisation of a health programme in Kemumin, Pengkalan Chepa, here, which was reportedly not officially communicated to the state authorities or enforcement agencies. 'The choice of venue and timing must also be considered wisely. Organising a programme until 2am in a village area such as Kemumin could cause concern among local residents. 'Such actions may be deemed insensitive to societal norms and local surroundings, and it would not be surprising if complaints were lodged with the police,' he said in a statement today.

Kelantan deputy MB: Illegal border crossings in Kelantan raise serious security concerns
KOTA BHARU, July 6 — The presence of dozens of illegal crossings along the Kelantan-Thailand border has raised serious national security concerns, said Kelantan Deputy Menteri Besar Datuk Dr Mohamed Fadzli Hassan. He emphasised that Kelantan's border is an integral part of Malaysia's international boundary with Thailand and must be protected with utmost vigilance. 'The border spans approximately 105 kilometres, with most of it covering Sungai Golok, which separates Kelantan from Thailand's Narathiwat province. 'There are only three official entry points, namely Rantau Panjang, Bukit Bunga and Pengkalan Kubor. However, behind these checkpoints lie dozens of illegal crossings frequently used for cross-border activities,' he said in a statement on his official Facebook page today. Mohamed Fadzli also noted that the region's geography and close familial ties between communities on both sides of the border further heighten its vulnerability to security threats. In light of this, the state government stressed the need to strengthen border enforcement through increased personnel deployment, enhanced security assets and coordinated efforts among all relevant agencies. He added that the state government is fully committed to working together to ensure the nation's borders remain secure. 'This is a shared responsibility to safeguard our sovereignty, protect public safety and secure the future of our nation,' he said. — Bernama
