Due to the recent surge in Covid-19 new cases, the entire nation is put under COVID-19 travel restriction beginning 12 May 2021 until 7 June 2021 following the latest directives by our Malaysian government to stem the rising number of cases in the country.

During the MCO (referred to MCO 3.0), all economic activities would be allowed to continue throughout the country, but interstate and inter-district travel, as well as social activities, events and dining-in at restaurants, are not permitted. The general public is encouraged to continue to stay at home with strict enforcement of the Movement Control Order (MCO) to curb the infection.
