YOURSAY | ‘We just have to get used to this ‘new world’ and do our best to adjust.’

So we have to stay home for another two weeks under the movement control order . It is a huge impost on business to survive.

The virus will be here for a long time. Just because the movement control order will stop at some point in time, it does not mean we should toss the disposable gloves and face masks. We need to adapt now, not later. - Look at some of the best practices in other countries. In some countries, lockdown means only essential services like supermarket and pharmacies can open. Everything else is closed. Even those stores which are opened are only allowing X number of people in the store to ensure social distancing. This is simple logic.

- Before the lockdown announcement or extending the lockdown, the government should have announced what financial assistance is available for employers, employees and self-employed. Without clear financial assistance, the extension of the MCO is only going to cause more mass panic and hardship for the rakyat.Well and good. We all have no choice. Please use the South Korean and Taiwan way, which is to test everyone and find the enemy so that you can wipe it out.
