PETALING JAYA: Police have reported an estimated 5% increase in traffic coming from northern states passing through the Jeli roadblock to go into Kelantan today.
Kelantan deputy police chief Abdullah Muhammad Piah said, more traffic was observed since noon today.
However, he said the roadblock at Pasir Puteh – the entry point for travellers from Terengganu – and the roadblock at Gua Musang for travellers from Kuala Lumpur have not seen higher traffic.
“Based on our observations, the number of cars around Kota Bharu has also increased by 15% today.
“The higher number of vehicles in Kota Bharu today could also be due to more people going out to buy goods in preparation for the upcoming Hari Raya Aidiladha celebrations,” he told Kosmo!.
Abdullah said police also found more vehicles in the districts of Tumpat and Machang, by about 5%.
On a related matter, Abdullah advised travellers going to Kelantan to have a legitimate reason for travel and to prepare the documents necessary to avoid problems when going through roadblocks in the state.
“However, we are not encouraging travellers to travel interstate and come home during this time.
“Ideally, travellers should not return to their hometowns to avoid spreading Covid-19,” he said. - FMT
