Malaysia will further ease its coronavirus restrictions from Wednesday, with nearly all social, economic and religious activities set to restart while adhering to strict social distancing protocols and safety measures.

The government has sought to restart commercial activity in stages, amid rising unemployment that has reached its highest in a decade.

Non-contact sports aside from water sports will also be allowed, but entertainment outlets will remain shut. Large gatherings are still prohibited. “I was considering a staycation in the Klang Valley for my birthday next week, but now I am going to scour for promotions in the east coast, or even Sabah,” said Kuala Lumpur-based banker Sharon Lee, 40.The number of new coronavirus cases have largely been in the double digits across the past eight weeks, with spikes mostly due to clusters among undocumented migrants held in detention centers.

He added that if the recovery phase is successful, it would be replaced with a normalization period after Aug 31 until a vaccine is found. The government says these plans – which have cost the Treasury RM35 billion in direct fiscal injections – have saved 2.4 million jobs, ensured cash flow to 11 million people and propped up over 300,000 companies.
