Covid-19: Top Glove's 28 factories in Kapar to close in stages for mass testing after cases surge, says Ismail Sabri


PETALING JAYA: The 28 Top Glove factories operating in Kapar, Klang, will be closed in stages to facilitate mass testing after a surge in Covid-19 cases there were detected, says Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

"I am led to believe that today alone there are 1,067 cases there. The factories will be closed in stages so that their workers can go in for testing and quarantine," the Defence Minister said during his Covid-19 briefing Monday (Nov 23).
