On eve of economy reopening, Health D-G reminds public MCO not fully lifted yet

Sunday, 03 May 2020 07:10 PM MYTHealth director-general Datuk Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said the government’s move to allow most businesses to reopen tomorrow does not indicate the lifting of the movement control order. — Picture by Yusof Mat Isa

Muhyiddin said in a televised interview recently that the economy loses RM2.5 billion a day for every day the country is in partial lockdown.

But as the number of daily positive cases suggest the outbreak has stabilised, public health authorities saw it fit to lift some restrictions to allow the economy to jumpstart again.
