As far as I can recall, the government will not allow us to chose the quarantine hotel. We will be escorted via the airport to the hotel of their choice
For International students it depends upon their respective universities to decide. I will post an update here if new announcement by govt has changed something.
According to MOHE announcement on 18th of july, 2020 Institutes will decide but 1 day before govt announced that they will be deciding upon hotel options for all but there is no such mention of International students.
But even so, universities are going to assist students to govt designated options only.
I have yet to receive new guidlines from Uni regarding new govt announcement. Once I receive an update I will update here.
This document is mostly regarding others who were previously exempted from hotel quarantine. International students have already been decided to go through 14 day quarantine at uni and govt designated hotels but this new announcement is emphasizing more on those who were exempted before. Those who were allowed to have self quarantine at homes.
International students already have to go through it.
Also if this document is released and refers to all travellers coming into Malaysia the International must also adhere to that. Which means that the hotels will be chosen by the government itself and we wont be allowed to opt
Oh alright. Ill be travelling on the 8th hopefully.. actually i didnt give full 21 day gap. I actually gave just 17 days. As there werent many flights in between. How long do you think its going to take for the approval? Also, i wanted to ask if the approval doesnt come until a few days prior to my flight can I still extend my flight to a later date and not get rejected on the approval cuz the travel authorization form has the date 8th august.

Hey! I have emailed you with a recent document uploaded by the government.
This document is mostly regarding others who were previously exempted from hotel quarantine. International students have already been decided to go through 14 day quarantine at uni and govt designated hotels but this new announcement is emphasizing more on those who were exempted before. Those who were allowed to have self quarantine at homes.
International students already have to go through it.
But if you look at the document carefully the date in the heading is 24th July 2020.
Also if this document is released and refers to all travellers coming into Malaysia the International must also adhere to that. Which means that the hotels will be chosen by the government itself and we wont be allowed to opt
Long story short, I will be travelling on 10th. I will share my experience here
