Zunar is back on the road again after his travel ban was lifted and passport returned.

Crossing over Malaysian immigration fot the first time – to London. It was exactly 2 years ago, 24 June 2016, the old regime imposed travel ban on me. Thanks new govt for uplifting it. @CRNetInt @CartooningPeace pic.twitter.com/focPFhseiM

Hard to believe it was as long as two years ago that we shared Zunar’s last Tweet from Kuala Lumpur airport when he reported the seizure of his documents and the imposition of a travel ban.

As he heads off to the UK, an excellent article in The Observer details his feelings after the change in Malaysian government and the loss of both his arch tormentors and chief muse in the form of Najib Razak and Rosmah Mansor.

Safe travels, Zunar!
