The government has extended the movement control order (MCO) period in the states of Selangor, Johor, Penang, Melaka, Sabah, Kelantan and the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya and Labuan to February 4, 2021. The reimplementation of the MCO from January 13 to 26 initially involved the aforementioned states and federal territories.
On January 15, it was announced that the MCO would also come into effect in Kelantan and part of Sarawak from January 16-26. This was later followed by Terengganu, Pahang, Perlis, Perak, Negeri Sembilan and Kedah, with the MCO period for these states set to run from January 22 to February 4, announced on January 19.
With the latest announcement, almost the whole of Malaysia now follows an identical MCO period. The only exception is Sarawak, where all parts of the state are under the conditional movement control order (CMCO) from January 18 to 31, with the exception of Sibu that is under the MCO and should follow the February 4 end date.
During his speech today, senior minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob also revealed that food outlets will be allowed to operate from 6am to 10pm, beginning January 22. Previously, operating hours were only until 8pm. The updated timing covers restaurants, food stalls and kiosks, food trucks, roadside hawkers, food courts and hawker centres.
As per MCO standard operating procedures (SOPs), no in-place dining will be allowed in MCO states, with only take-away, drive-thru and deliveries being permitted.

No in-place dining allowed. BUT buses and trains can run at full capacity… Bas 40 orang, KTM MRT LRT full capacity 500 penumpang.. xde logical deduction langsung incompetence senior minister nih.
Restoran open till 10pm. Syukuring just gets better and better and better. Thanks so much perihatin gomen!
..with the allowance of 40 person/bus, I hope this would not create a bus-rider cluster.
from 17 march 2020, and counting…. suffering.
Copy paste: “To reduce the chances of infection, people to people interaction has to be reduced, but that causes less economic activities, lower or loss in income or jobs. So, it’s either that or higher risk of infection & probably death. Of course, there are now vaccines but still too early to tell, and there are concerns about serious side effects & their effectiveness against the latest mutated strains of the virus.”
think deeply, who is the biggest shareholder of buses and trains organizations?
Only for 40 frontliners and essential workers going to work. I don’t see a problem.
dine-in is not allowed because ppl will have to take down mask to eat hence higher risk
This 2nd MCO is less restrictive than the 1st one because the govt does not want the economy to be hit badly like during 1st MCO. But the number of daily cases is still in the 4 digit territory and has not reduced significantly. Some say that it’s too early to tell. Some say that the vaccine will eventually help push the numbers down. Hopefully this govt will remember that people are still dying from this pandemic and the dead cannot be revived but it’s not impossible to revive a badly hit economy.
Oi bodoh u gaji jalan better diam.
all this kuat sembang minister… pkp hidup rakyat makin sempit dan perit.. ibu menganggur caught shoplifting basic household and food at pj hypermarket and demam relief for her son…

So is it still a MCO. It is to lax. After the 10 pm news, they are demanding 2 person per table dining now.
