KUALA LUMPUR - Malaysia has put two buildings in Kuala Lumpur under an enhanced movement control order after 15 cases of coronavirus were detected there.

The order takes effect from Tuesday until all residents are screened, said Malaysian Senior Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob in a statement. A check by The Star at the location at about 1.30pm on Tuesday showed security personnel installing barricades around the area, including barbed wire fences. Under the MCO, residents are allowed to leave their homes to buy supplies from supermarkets and wet markets, and to buy food from restaurants. They can also order food to be delivered to their homes.
