Presidential Spokesperson Edwin Lacierda stated at a press conference in Malacañang on the 10th that although he does not yet know what security measures the Immigration Bureau plans to improve, he can confirm that these measures will still be very strict.
Lacierda said: “I believe our existing security measures are already very strict, but this is a good reminder for us to review our security measures.” He added: “I am sure the Immigration Bureau will view this incident as a reflection for reviewing our security measures.”
It is reported that the Malaysian flight (Boeing 777-200) bound for Beijing disappeared from radar screens 40 minutes after taking off on the morning of the 8th.
At the same time, Lacierda stated that he would consult with Immigration Commissioner Siegfred Mison regarding the procedures for lost passports.
