Residents overjoyed Simpang Renggam enhanced MCO lifted

Malaysiakini

CORONAVIRUS | “Let it be the first and last,” said Yazid Naim about the enhanced movement control order (MCO) in Simpang Renggam near Kluang, Johor, that was lifted at midnight yesterday.
Joy and relief were written all over the face of the 45-year-old resident of Kampung Dato’ Ibrahim Majid, one of the villages that came under the enhanced MCO on March 27.
Along with the village, Bandar Baru Dato’ Ibrahim Majid and several other villages in Simpang Renggam were also placed under the order after 61 residents were found to have been infected by Covid-19, the disease now ravaging the world.
“During the 30 days, I was just cooped up in my house. I was unable to carry out my daily chores. Everything had to be postponed,” Yazid told Bernama, sharing the general feeling of fellow residents.
With the enhanced MCO lifted, these areas now revert to the MCO which is into its fourth two-week phase from today to May 12 across the country.
Yazid said the enhanced MCO had its good points as well.
“We were able to observe how people from various quarters collaborated and cooperated to help us. They worked hard to free us from the enhanced MCO,” he said, expressing gratitude to all the healthcare personnel and others.
Another resident, Fadhil Abdullah, 52, said he was unable to operate his retail shop in Kampung Dato’ Ibrahim Majid during the enhanced MCO.
Now that the enhanced MCO is over, he is considering reopening the shop as it is the only source of income for his family.
“I hope life will return to near-normal again for us because under the MCO there is some flexibility. I am happy that the enhanced MCO has ended,” a beaming Fadhil said.
Bernama found that permitted businesses in the area that was under the enhanced MCO have yet to reopen. - Bernama
