ASEAN people enjoy one-month visa free travel

“Previously, tourists from ASEAN countries were only allowed to travel not more than 17 or 18 days without visas,” the director general said, adding that the extension was aimed at making travel in the region easier and encouraging tourists to stay longer.

He said ways to increase the functions and concepts of ASEAN passports have also been discussed to set up standards of member countries’ passports as this will help in identifying genuine passports from fakes.
