Malaysians in favour of tougher MCO


PETALING JAYA: The majority of Malaysians surveyed in a National Security Council (NSC) online poll want a tougher movement control order (MCO).

A whopping 96% of 230,562 people who took the poll say that authorities must be stricter. The poll which started on March 30, also showed that 84% of those surveyed were prepared for the extended MCO until April 14.

As of press time, 87% of those polled online said that there was enough food supply in their areas during the MCO.

The NSC poll appears to tally with official indications that most Malaysians are adhering to the MCO. The online polls on the NSC website between March 30 and yesterday is an ongoing survey to gauge how well the public is accepting the MCO and how prepared they are during the period.
