LETTER | The consecutive declaration of first the movement control order (MCO) for five states and the Federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur, Labuan and Putrajaya yesterday, followed by the emergency today has taken Malaysians, especially workers, by surprise.
The conditional MCO in three other states was also needed as inter-state movements have contributed greatly to the rise beside the mandatory screening of foreign workers.
However, in view of the steep spike in the number of Covid-19 positive cases over the last month, the MCO was absolutely necessary as the lives of Malaysians matter most. This would act as a circuit breaker and bring the surge under control.
