From next Monday, May 10, all interstate and inter-district travel will not be allowed unless one has police permission to do so. This was announced by senior minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob today.
The defence minister also said that social, education and economic activities that can lead to crowding will not be allowed from Monday onwards. The brakes are also on for official, social and face-to-face activities by both the government and the private sector.
Also, all premises listed in the government’s new Hotspots Identification for Dynamic Engagement (HIDE) system will have to be shut for three days. This takes effect immediately, which means from Sunday, May 9. Most of the popular malls in the Klang Valley such as Pavilion, Suria KLCC, MidValley Megamall, 1 Utama and Sunway Pyramid, among others, have been flagged by HIDE.
As for supermarkets and hypermarkets, many Giant, Aeon and Lotus’s branches are in the list, along with neighbourhood 99 Speedmart outlets and Ramadan bazaars.
This latest raft of measures comes as Malaysia recorded 4,519 new Covid-19 cases today, the second consecutive day that total infections have breached the 4k mark.
Today also saw health director-general Tan Sri Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah conduct a live press conference after 64 days. In his comeback PC, the D-G said that hospitals nationwide are running out of ICU beds as more and more new cases are serious ones. Also, there are a lot more people in their 20s and 30s getting Covid, and mutant variants of the virus such as the South African N501Y strain is already spreading in Malaysia.
“Now the cases are very high. If you are infected, come to the hospital, if we do not have ICU beds, we are in trouble. So then, we don’t want to end up like countries, where we have to select who will live and who will die,” he said. Dr Noor Hisham was most probably referring to India, where the healthcare system has bucked and people are struggling to find hospital beds and oxygen supply.
Remember that line: stay home, stay safe.

so, can go to work or not? must get police letter to go to work?
Copy paste: “From next Monday, May 10, all interstate and inter-district travel will not be allowed unless one has police permission to do so”
Buka jer border negeri. Buat SOP teliti sikit dan saman jer orang yang sebar COVID-19. Kan ada MySejahtera contract-tracing? Tak tau pakai maklumat yang ade ke?
Sebenarnya COVID-19 yang paling dahsyat ada di parlimen. Dah vaccine penuh pon kena tutup..
Bukak, complain about infections going up.
Xbukak, complain about hidup susah.
Peeps that complain should ask if they want to live or die.
Syukuring to our kjaan perihatin for caring our lives. People who complain about susah or losing jobs should be grateful they are still living becuz someone is caring for them.
Agree 100% Dr. This caring kjaan perihatin for dear rakyat. Gaji tetap jalan, Raya tetap raya. Salam Raya semua.
Tapi ingatlah bahawa semasa Raya, virus tetap merebak.. Eid Mubarak.
This is Darurat, No Rentas Negeri and No Balik Kampung. Life’s more important now, apelagi yang takpaham.
Hopefully they won’t repeat their mistakes from mco2
does restriction of interstate and inter-district travel apply to commercial deliveries ?
48% of cases come from factories, still no WFH orders until today for MCO 3.0. More like a movement control disorder instead.
Pergi kedai beli cincau,
beli cincau kedai apek,
yg x dapat balik jngn meracau,
Kerajaan peka PrihatiN memang terbaek.
Very good. Now can go pasar malam to help all hawker
I totally support whatever measures gomen takes to flatten the curve.
However,what is totally puzzling is to ban interdistrict/state travel while allowing approx 100,000(correct me if I am wrong) students to travel to their hometowns.Can anyone explain what happens if 5% of the students bring the infection home? Baby boomers and grandma/dad will be at risk.It is commendable to see a melaka group of uni students deciding to stay put in campus to celebrate raya.
Tebuk atap ke, Katak lompat ke… Kerajaan sayang wahai marhaen, susah payah jaga rakyat dari kovid. Patut bersyukur xrentas negeri,
I feel that I alao capable to be minister. We can fight covid19 just to close shopping malls for 3 days? What’s a joke!
They close the shopping malls to do disinfectant procedure & all the staffs are required to go for swab test. What is so difficult to understand?
here we go again……………and later u-turn somewhere, somehow, somewhat, sometime later.
Many of my Malay frens say Raya 2021 is the most memorable one with all the wrongs reasons.
Syukur gomen bagi marhaen merasa RayaPKP most memorable one.
Heppi heppi raya pasang lampu lip lap lip lap kuih raya baju raya dah redi.
Nearly all my Malay friends and contact are supportive of this govt initiatives to stop the spread and they are happy that hard decisions are taken when necessary and yet some flexibility is given to when possible to support the economy.
I dunno about your friends but nearly all mine are patient in last and this Raya as they understand govt doing the right things for the right reasons.
With MCO 3.0 and cannot balik-kampung, even my cat is stressed and depressed…..
There are 3 kinds of idiots, those who against MCO 3.0, those critic the govt implementation of it, and those diehard to balik kampung and obviously they are all from the same camp.
Guess there’s not much difference between those who support for the sake of supporting and those who criticize for the sake of criticizing.
Huuuugge difference with those who criticize for the sake of it and those who 100% support our frontliners.
Frontliners themselves do criticize when conditions get worse. If others criticize for the same reason, should there be a difference?
They criticise rakyat for not following SOP, they did not criticise gomen for implementing MCO instead the 100% sapot gomen. Big difference.
Do frontliners tell outsiders about the other things they also gripe about?
Doctors, nurses & other medical staff have their own private stories & personal opinions.
yeah, even the stray cats in my neighbourhood have started fighting one another more frequently.
