Response to your request:

Please be informed that we aim to provide information whenever possible. However, in this case, we are prompted not to share the requested information as it contains personal details. Releasing such information would constitute an unnecessary invasion of a person’s privacy, personal information, or records, which falls under the exceptions provided under Section 4 of the Bureau of Immigration Freedom of Information Manual, stating that:

“The following are the exceptions to the right of access to information, as
recognized by the Constitution, existing laws, or jurisprudence:

xxx

5. Information, documents or records known by reason of official
capacity and are deemed as confidential, including those submitted or
disclosed by entities of government agencies, tribunals, boards, or officers,
in relation to the performance of their functions, or to inquiries or
investigation conducted by them in the exercise of their administrative,
regulatory or quasi-judicial powers. xxx”
