Summary: | Illegal immigrants movement into the vanous parts of Malaysia,
especially the State of Sabah has become an alarming national issue.
This is especially true with the vibrant economic growth in Malaysia
which has become the main focus for the illegal immigrants. Thus the
main objective of this study is to evaluate the capability level of the local
authority and its enforcement personnel in managing those threats. The
results of the study showed that the local authorities' management
system in controlling the influx of illegal immigrants into the District of
Tawau only achieved a rating of 0.34 i.e. does not meet the requirements.
Meanwhile, the capability level of the enforcement personnel only
partially meet the requirement with a mere rating of 0.63. Hence various
changes to the present set-up of the local authorities and its enforcement
personnel need to be enhanced before the issue become critical. |
