Muhyiddin: Move to impose MCO tough decision


KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The move to impose the movement control order (MCO) nationwide to restrict the movement of the people was a tough decision that had to be made to contain the spread of Covid-19 in the country, said Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin (pic).

He said the decision, which he had to make just 17 days after taking his oath of office as the prime minister, was not an easy one but it had to be taken for the well-being of Malaysians.
