Starting 4 May 2020, four people from the same household will be allowed to go out together in a single car, as reported by Free Malaysia Today.
According to Senior Minister (Security) Ismail Sabri Yaakob, there are no issues with maintaining social distancing for those from the same house since they are staying together.
Additionally, all public transport vehicles will only carry half their maximum capacity. This is to ensure appropriate social distancing rules are observed during the Conditional MCO.
For example, if the bus can fit 80 people (at any one time), only 40 people will be allowed to ride it.

This capacity limitation will be a part of the strict standard operating procedures to ensure that social distancing remains enforced.
Starting tomorrow, most industries will reopen as announced by the Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
However, the government will be enforcing social distancing rules and the public is urged to follow those rules.
