Malaysian respondents were in stage four — daily adjustment — while those from Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines were in stage five or fully adapted.Malaysia officially entered the “recovery” phase today, with the government eager for most business activities to return to some form of normalcy despite maintaining restrictions such as capacity limits.

Worryingly for the domestic tourism sector, 55 per cent of the respondents said they would not travel within the country for the remainder of this year. The findings of the survey will be good news for health authorities still concerned about the lingering risk of a possible exponential rise in Covid-19 cases. While new infections have flattened in recent times, there were still 1,224 active cases as of yesterday.
