Council to give guidelines for eateries after MCO ends

SMC enforcement team checking on a hardware store to ensure MCO regulations are observed.

SIBU: Sibu Municipal Council (SMC) will decide on how best eateries should operate three months after the movement control order (MCO) is lifted.

SMC chairman Clarence Ting said four key issues to be decided were whether there is a need for crowd control by restricting seating capacity; need to implement social distancing, if food handlers need to wear gloves and whether all service staff are required to wear face masks or face shields.
