I tell my whole story. I wanted to leave Malaysia went to the border at Padang Besar. There the immigration of Malaysia noted I was one day overstaying. I counted the days in Malaysia in my head like usual and made a mistake. I have to use a written calendar. The Malay immigration officer asked me to go to the Thai immigration and ask if they would let me into their country. I would be in big trouble if I was stamped out of Malaysia but could not get into Thailand.
I got to the Thai immigration officer and tried to ask her the question the Malay immigration
officer wanted me to. The Thai officer did not react to me and just tried to make me do things
she asked me to. I could not get through to her. I tried again and again. It just did not work.
After a long time somebody spoke to me and said he would call the superior of the officer. I should wait ten minutes. I waited and asked him again and after some time again then after some time again nothing happened. I went back to to the Malay immigration and after this to Penang. At the immigration office I received a special pass valid for seven days in Malaysia. I went to Singapore tried to enter the country. I was refused this. One excuse I heard was I would be doing something like a border run which would be an abuse which they refuse. A border run is entering a country and leaving it shortly afterwards to renew the visa in another country. Many people also stay some time in the country then. In Singapore I could not do this it is too expensive for me to do that. So I could not leave Malaysia and ended up with the immigration of Malaysia in Johor Bahru. I got a special pass again and had seven days again to leave the country. I had to leave the country by airplane from Kuala Lumpur airport (KLIA). With a Malay I tried several days to book a flight but it did not work. Internet was too slow once, the price went suddenly up we needed to refill the bank account. There was something else which prevented booking a flight by credit card. Then at KL Sentral we tried to book a flight with the company air asia at the machine in the office there. We were told that it was less than four fours left until the flight so we could no more book a flight this way we would have to book at the airport. There trying to book the flight I was told it would be less than one hour until the flight I could no more book the flight. I asked then If there was another flight to the destination this day. The answer was no. I tried other providers at the airport but I did not find another flight affordably priced this day to the destiny where I wanted to go. So I was close to overstaying. I asked at the airport to speak with the immigration. After the immigration officer heard that I have a special pass he said I would fly to my home country. He insisted on that.
But with asking me to leave to my home country I would have to spend hundreds and hundreds of Euro for a flight to a destination I do not want to go which is a big unnecessary drain on my savings.
I think that the immigration of Malaysia has legislation to get foreigners out of the country but this legislation does not easily stretches beyond their border like demanding foreigners to go to their home country.
What have I done? Now I have overstayed my visa for some days now.
I do not think that this justifies interfering with the life of mine like to send me to my home country. I will not agree with that.
