Forget about the bloody hotel. I want to know what's the number to date on the Island. NancyShukri

Vaccines do work lol

It’s Ritz Carlton. Owned by Marriott International whose major shareholders are Vanguard and Blackrock who are the major shareholders of Big Pharma, Coca Cola, and many many more

Tutup je la balik langkawi, siasat kes atok ni pulak. Atok tak pernah teragak-agak untuk memusnahkan dan menjahanamkan sesuatu, demi diri beliau sendiri dan keluarga beliau. Hanya HRHJohorII saja harapan rakyat sekarang ni.

Just name the Hotel! Otherwise dont write anything!!!

Why hotel tak amik extra precaution tahu langkawi open for tourism. Even fully vacinnated , hotel buat ler swab RTK to all staffs atleast once a week. 🤔 Diorg buat ke tak

Hows dis is new norm? Nonsense. I got friends worked in airlines, 1 pssngr cov+ve returning frm lngkwi. KKM called on next day declared whole flight as direct contct and needed quarantine for 10 days. Imgne 200 passngr need to work the next day, imgine every flight got cases 🤦‍♂️

Noted

Bringing this up as the dessert for you people who consume mainstream news like it’s soul food.

Overconfident!!!!

Bukan sepatutnya setiap minggu ke kena buat rtk. Takkan 1 pun tak positive?

Wei The star antivax ke? Jangan headline² macam ni lah, nanti kambing² terkejut baca headline ni. Vax safe and effektive, kan?

Haiyaaa

Wow almost as if the vaccine is useless

titanklang amarasan2203

why not disclosing which hotel. its public info. tahap pandemic ni masih ade nak jaga info public interest sbb legal case?

There might be a loophole. HMC

50 staffs..if almost all had close contact with tourists, new breakout soon. I hope since all fully vaccinated, the symptoms won't be severe.

🤦🏻‍♀️

Hello Nancy, where are youuuu?

Where is that NancyShukri now ?

Tsk tsk tsk...nampak gaya pandemic of the vaccinated ini. So not only vaccinated are not safe for the unvaxxed - you are not safe amongst yourself! Kesianya.

asrulmm abisla melaka pasni

syahredzan Both staff and tourist completed their vaccinations. How the fuck 50 got infected?

I share here just in case ada memerlukan swab di rumah , both pcr or rtk 🙏

What a success! Bravo!

😂

Oh oh! 😐

Wow a big number for a hotel 😥

They still investigating the origins of the infection! Could it from the child who is infected recently?

Infected Children maybe asymptomatic and if no test carried out , there is going to be another spike in cases !

State health director Dr. Othman Warijo said the infection was categorized under work place clusters known as Dah 'Teluk Nibung' involving hotel personnel. Ritz Carlton?
