In Malaysia, the Covid-19 situation doesn’t look good at all – with the daily caseload still hovering in triple digits.
In Selangor and KL in particular (and Penang too), things seem to be taking a turn for the worse.
Therefore, today's announcement that Selangor, Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya are to go under a Conditional Movement Control Order beginning from 12.01 AM on October 14 until October 27, 2020.
Now here’s what’s weird. Selangor Menteri Besar Amirudin Shari (left) said he was taken aback by the Federal government’s sudden decision to implement a statewide CMCO – when the state-level National Security Council found that the Covid-19 situation was only “worrying” in Klang, Gombak, Hulu Langat and parts of Petaling.
I think so too. It's an overkill, that's what it is. Whatever happened to the policy of targeted lockdowns?!
And obviously, Putrajaya wasn’t too bothered to communicate and refer to the state authorities on this important matter.
