KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysians possessing or using foreign passports may have their citizenships revoked, a local daily reported here on Monday.

Utusan Malaysia, a Malay daily, quoted Malaysian Immigration Department's Director-General Abdul Rahman Othman as making the remark.

Abdul Rahman reminded Malaysians not to simply enter or exit the country using foreign passports.

As Malaysia disallows dual citizenship, Malaysians cannot hold any other country's citizenship.
