Where are the locations?

Melaka, Genting Highlands and Tioman Island!

It’s coming in two more weeks

The decision will be brought to the Covid-19 Management Committee which will be chaired by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob tomorrow on 22 September.

Within two weeks, the destinations will be ready to resume operations. The Ministry together with the Special Committee will refine the standard operating procedures (SOP) in the Special Committee meeting tomorrow involving screening tests as Melaka is relatively large.
