Malaysia to install fingerprint immigration system

The National Foreigners Enforcement and Registration System (NERS) (TheStar.com.my)

Foreigners entering the country from June 1 will have their thumbprints taken under a biometric system to enhance security at 96 entry points.

The National Foreigners Enforcement and Registration System (NERS) would register and monitor foreigners from their arrival until departure, said Deputy Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

Just having an automated way to know with certainty how many people overstay their visa is probably worth the investment. A system that can do that can also do so much more.
