MISSILE ACTIVITIES: Malaysia bans its citizens from travelling to North Korea

Due to its increasing ballistic missile activities, the government of Malaysia has banned its citizens from travelling to North Korea led by defiant and headstrong leader, Kim Jong Un.
The government of Malaysia made the development known after its foreign ministry announced the ban in a statement Thursday and said that it would last until further notice.
The statement cited North Korea’s missile tests and related developments. North Korea has been targeted in recent months by stricter sanctions and increasing diplomatic pressure, with Kuwait and Mexico expelling its envoys in recent weeks.

He declared that the US is “totally prepared” to take a military option against North Korea, saying “it will be devastating” to Pyongyang.
