PETALING JAYA: A big majority of public transit passengers observed during the early morning rush hour had been diligent in wearing a face mask, although a small number either chose not to wear it or put it on incorrectly.

During a two-hour observation between the peak hours of 7am and 9am using the Click Counter app, The Star looked at about 7,500 commuters at KL Sentral’s main hall yesterday.

An estimated 90% of them wore face masks properly after getting off the trains and while walking around the one-stop transport hub.
