CORONAVIRUS | Come Friday, July 24, returning Malaysians and non-citizens permitted to enter the country will once more be made to undergo mandatory two-week quarantine at specified quarantine centres.
Senior Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob today said the government decided to revoke the allowance for those entering the country to self-quarantine at home.
As such, Malaysians returning to the country will no longer need to undergo Covid-19 testing prior to departure at their country of origin. Non-citizens are still required to do so.
All those to be quarantined will have to bear the full cost of quarantine services.
This comes following concerns many citizens were not adhering to the stipulated standard operating procedures (SOPs) during the recovery movement control order (MCO), including those undergoing mandatory quarantine.
New Covid-19 clusters have begun to emerge in recent days and the Perak Health Department is working to track down a woman who was said to have breached the Covid-19 house surveillance order.
