Instead, he said the Health Ministry will issue a letter stating the test results to employers, specifically for non-Malaysian employees. “This is because the test is only valid for that timeframe,” he said during the Health Ministry’s daily briefing on Covid-19. Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the tag was to enable the public to identify foreign workers who had undergone a Covid-19 test.
