马来西亚总理安瓦尔于2026年7月22日在森美兰州芙蓉市出席活动时重申了政府的长期政策立场[1]。安瓦尔表示，马来西亚政府不会改变禁止以色列公民入境的政策，即使面临美国国会议员的施压[1]。他并质问道："我们怎么能承认一个殖民其他国家的国家呢？"[1] 若调查证实有以色列公民进入马来西亚，政府将立即将其驱逐出境[1]。
马来西亚的这一立场由来已久[1]。自20世纪60年代独立以来，该国从未与以色列建立外交关系[1]。这种政治态度在官方文件中也有明确体现——马来西亚护照扉页明文声明："本护照适用于所有国家，以色列除外"[1]。
此次重申禁令与近期一起舆论事件相关[1]。2026年7月上旬，以色列网红Nas Daily出镜介绍柔佛州森林城市社区引发争议，随后柔佛州务大臣哈菲兹致函联邦内政部，要求就移民和国家安全展开专项调查[1]。
Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reinforced his government's long-standing refusal to recognize Israeli sovereignty on July 22, 2026, declaring that the nation will not alter its policy prohibiting Israeli citizens from entering the country, regardless of pressure from U.S. Congressional members [1]. Speaking at an event in Seremban, Selangor, Anwar challenged the premise of Israeli statehood itself, asking: "How can we recognize a country that colonizes other nations?" [1]
The Malaysian government has maintained this uncompromising stance for decades, having never established diplomatic relations with Israel since the country's independence in the 1960s [1]. The commitment is formally codified in Malaysian passports, which bear an explicit statement: "This passport is valid for all countries except Israel" [1]. Should an investigation confirm that an Israeli citizen has entered Malaysia, Anwar made clear the authorities would immediately deport the individual [1].
The recent restatement came amid a controversy involving Israeli content creator Nas Daily, who posted videos promoting Johor's Forest City development in early July 2026 [1]. The incident prompted Johor's Chief Minister Haffiz to write to the federal Interior Ministry, requesting a specialized investigation into immigration procedures and national security matters [1].
