PUTRAJAYA (Bernama): Police will monitor popular public spots around Putrajaya on Tuesday (Aug 31) to prevent large crowds from gathering to watch the National Day 2021 celebration airshow.

Putrajaya district police chief ACP A. Asmadi Abdul Aziz said it was understandable that many were excited and eager to celebrate National Day, but it should be celebrated with the new normal practices in place due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic.
