Yemeni refugee applicants have been flying to Malaysia, where foreigners can stay for up to 90 days without a visa, before moving on to Jeju, which had a visa waiver program to encourage tourism. Some 549 people have submitted applications and 486 are staying on the island, waiting for the government’s decision which could take up to 3 months. (Photo by Chris Jung/NurPhoto)
