PETALING JAYA: The New Year celebrations this year will be without fireworks display at key hotspots, such as KLCC and Pavilion mall.

The Kuala Lumpur police made the announcement today saying that the decision was made in order to curb the spread of Covid-19.

“This cancellation is in compliance with the SOPs pertaining to Phase 4 of the national recovery plan (NRP),” Dang Wangi district police chief Noor Dellhan Yahaya said.

“We will be patrolling all the popular locations on Dec 31 to ensure that everyone adheres to the SOPs.”

“Therefore, the public is advised to continue to comply with the SOPs set by the National Security Council in fighting the Covid-19 outbreak,” he said in a statement today.

Failure to comply with the SOPs will result in action being taken under the provisions of the laws and regulations that are still in force, he added. - FMT
