From Muammar Kamarudin
JEDDAH, Feb 4 (Bernama) -- An operations room has been set up at the Madinatul Hujaj transit centre here, where Malaysian students from Egypt are being accommodated following their evacuation from the troubled country.
Malaysian Consul General in Jeddah, Datuk Mohd Hidayat Abdul Hamid, said the transit centre could accommodate 3,000 people.
"So far, more than 300 students have arrived here and more will be arriving with the expected arrival of the Mas, Air Asia and Royal Malaysian Air Force aircraft in the next few hours," he told Bernama here.
He said parents of the affected students could contact the operations room at the transit centre at telephone number 0096626301678 or 0096626726191 for more information.
Mohd Hidayat said if the need arose, the students would be placed at the Tabung Haji hostel and assured parents that their children would be well taken care of during their stay at the transit centre.
One of the students met at the centre, Eizat Rejab, 20, said they gathered at the Perlis House in Cairo before being taken by an officer from the Malaysian Embassy to the Cairo airport.
He said the first batch of students who were evacuated were from Perlis, Penang and Kelantan and majority of them were women.
It is learnt that the second group of Malaysian students who will be evacuated are from Selangor and Sarawak, said the Al-Azhar University student.
Another student, Mohd Ainur Rabbani, 19, of the University of Jordan, said he was in Egypt for a holiday and was initially doubtful that they would be able to leave the country.
It was a relief that through the action taken by the Malaysian government, we were able to leave Egypt, said Mohd Ainur, who is from Subang Jaya, Selangor.
