澳大利亞政府今天（本月21號）提醒本國遊客，馬來西亞吉隆坡等地可能會發生恐怖襲擊。
根據已公布的信息來看，恐怖分子主要是針對西方遊客的。但是炸彈又不長眼睛。新加坡和馬來西亞近，近期要去吉隆坡（包括馬來西亞其它大城市，新加坡的朋友們去新山尤其多）的朋友們，請高度注意。尤其娛樂等熱鬧場所，大家就盡量多回避。
真是城門失火，殃及池魚。
去東沙巴等沿海區域的，也務必多加小心。結合2013年東沙巴發生過恐怖襲擊事件”台灣夫妻赴邦邦島度假，一死一失蹤，被擄走的張姓婦人“，這個地方陸海形勢都比較複雜。
當年台灣遊客在沙巴遇襲，台灣電視新聞的截圖，討論當時歐美國家已經預警，但是台灣外交部門調低了警戒，也就是說台灣政府有點”輕敵“。
Latest advice, 21 Feb 2016
Terrorists may be planning attacks in and around Kuala Lumpur. Attacks could be indiscriminate and may target Western interests or locations frequented by Westerners. You should be particularly vigilant at this time. The level of advice has not changed. We continue to advise Australians to reconsider the need to travel to the coastal region of eastern Sabah, and to exercise normal security precautions in Malaysia overall.
Summary
- We advise you to exercise normal safety precautions in Malaysia overall. Exercise common sense and look out for suspicious behaviour, as you would in Australia.
- Terrorists may be planning attacks in and around Kuala Lumpur. Attacks could be indiscriminate and may target Western interests or locations frequented by Westerners. You should be particularly vigilant at this time.
- There is an ongoing threat of terrorism in Malaysia, including Kuala Lumpur and other major cities. Attacks could be indiscriminate and may affect locations frequented by Westerners. Malaysian authorities have made a number of arrests of persons allegedly involved in planning attacks, including against entertainment venues in Kuala Lumpur. SeeSafety and security.
- Australians should avoid all travel to the coastal resorts of eastern Sabah, including the islands, dive sites and associated tourist facilities owing to the continuing high threat of kidnapping, and as such you should reconsider your need to travel to the area. The risk of kidnapping increases on the water and waterfront after nightfall. Information indicates there is a continuing threat of attacks by armed insurgents in or around the coastal regions of eastern Sabah.
- The kidnapping threat is highest in the area between the towns of Sandakan and Tawau due to its proximity to the Sulu archipelago in the southern Philippines.
- Smoke haze across some parts of Malaysia including Kuala Lumpur is usual from June to October but can occur at any time of the year. When haze levels are high the Malaysian authorities recommend limiting outdoor activity. There has been a significant increase in cases of dengue fever throughout 2015 and this trend is expected to continue in 2016. See Health section.
- If you are intending to travel overland from Malaysia to Thailand, you should also read the travel advice for Thailand which recommends that Australians do not travel to or through the far southern Thai provinces of Yala, Pattani, Narathiwat and Songkhla.
- Australians visiting Malaysia on business should see our Advice to Australian business travellers.
