Traveling to Malaysia For Vacation and I am a nurse...

Published

Hello all,

This coming November, I am planning to spend some time in Malaysia for vacation. I am right now working as a volunteer nurse in a local hospital (which means I am not bound by any contract whatsoever). Do I need to present a proof to the immigration officer in NAIA just to make sure I will come back to the Philippines? Last time when my aunt, en route to Hong kong in NAIA, she was not allowed to leave the country because she did not have any travel document, or some kind of authorization that she will travel outside the country. She is nurse working in the government hospital by the way.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

J.

Government employees are really required to present authorization from their office allowing them to travel outside the country. In your case, well, since you are only a volunteer nurse, this is not needed. And also, if you are volunteering in a private hospital, you also do not need that..

Is this rule apply even they (the government employees) are taking personal trips (pleasure trips)?

yup.... it applies even for personal trips...just make sure you filed for a leave of absence....

Thanks for sharing your information about this! :-)
