KUCHING: Sarawak is enforcing strict entry procedures for those coming from Labuan and Peninsular Malaysia to prevent the Covid-19 Delta variant from entering the state, says Datuk Amar Douglas Uggah Embas.

The Deputy Chief Minister said the Delta variant had not been detected in the state so far while cases had been reported elsewhere in Malaysia.
