City authorities in Kuala Lumpur, the country's largest city, have confiscated equipment from six people, five of whom were non-Malaysians, pending fines under street hawking regulations. This follows an April warning about unlicensed street photography. The authorities believe this could pose a safety risk to visitors and drivers. The country's most popular holiday destination is estimated to have 42 million arrivals in 2025, around 10 million more than neighbouring Thailand.
