PETALING JAYA: It was a proud moment in history for Malaysia as powerlifter Bonnie Bunyau Gustin delivered Malaysia’s first gold medal at the Tokyo Paralympics.
PETALING JAYA: Malaysians took to social media to express discontent over a new rule allowing Cabinet ministers returning from official overseas visits to undergo a three-day observation period instead of 10 days.
According to a new ministerial order issued by the Government on Monday (Feb 8), ministers returning from abroad will undergo a reduced period of three days of observation or be under home surveillance until discharge without danger to the public.
Effective Dec 14 last year, Malaysians returning from abroad and those who have had close contact with a person infected with Covid-19 will need to be quarantined for 10 days instead of the earlier practice of 14 days.
