Malaysia, substantially similar to those contained in this Act, the

Minister may by Order extend this Act or such provisions thereof as he deems appropriate to such country or territory, and this Act or such provisions thereof as may be specified in the Order shall thereupon apply in respect of such country or territory as though the references to Singapore were references to such country or territory.

The Minister may by the same Order made under subsection

or by a subsequent Order, direct that this Act or such provisions thereof as may be specified in the Order shall, in relation to such country or territory, apply subject to such modifications, exceptions, conditions and qualifications as he may think fit to specify for the purpose of implementing the reciprocal provisions.

Any Order made under this section shall be published in the Gazette and shall be laid before each House of Parliament as soon as may be after it is made.

In this section, “Minister” means the Minister responsible for foreign affairs.
