Effective 9 January, 2009 foreign citizens may apply to participate in MM2H programme directly, without going through any other third party, OR may continue to use the services of MM2H agents licensed by the Ministry of Tourism, Malaysia.

2. Effective 9 January, 2009 there will be a freeze on issuance of MM2H agent licenses by the Ministry of Tourism, Malaysia.
Would like to add that according to an NST news report of 2009/03/24, all successful applicants in the Malaysia My Second Home programme will now be given identity cards similar to the MyKad.

Tourism Ministry secretary-general Datuk Dr Ong Hong Peng said the card, which was silver in colour, was introduced on March 9. It was being issued to all participants of MM2H, he said after the launch of a rebranding exercise of the programme.
