Covid-19: 'Weekend' husbands, wives allowed to travel to meet spouses in areas under conditional MCO, need police permission


PUTRAJAYA: "Weekend" husbands and wives are allowed to travel to meet up with their spouses who live in areas under the conditional movement control order (MCO), says Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

The Defence Minister said police permission is still needed before making the trip and they need to furnish proof that despite being married and having families, they are living apart and can only meet on certain days due to work commitments.
