Can you transit through the Philippines on an emergency travel document issued by Malaysia?
Can I transit in another country before returning to my home country using an emergency travel document? I'm a Malaysian currently in Japan. I lost my passport and I'm currently being issued an emergency travel document. The problem here is that I have to transit through the Philippines before returning to Malaysia. Will there be any problems during my transit?
