“They are scared of going out and prefer to stay at home instead. Even if they go out, it will be to somewhere near to run errands.

Kuala Penyu, located about 50 kilometres from the state capital, is renowned for its Pulau Tiga, which was the setting of the first season of popular American TV series"Survivor". Limus said that besides having the police and the people’s volunteer corps at roadblocks enforcing the MCO, authorities are also limiting ferries and boats travelling between Menumbok and Labuan.
