Govt rule on compulsory wearing of face masks needs clarity, says Lam Thye


KUALA LUMPUR: The government should clearly define the terms "public places" and "crowded areas" in connection with the compulsory wearing of face masks, says Tan Sri Lee Lam Thye.

The Alliance for Safe Community chairman said while the intention behind the new rule was good, there was a need for the government to clear up the ambiguities behind the ruling.
