MOH given time for border reopening proposals


ISKANDAR PUTERI: The Health Ministry (MOH) has been given two to three weeks to present to the Cabinet proposals and standard operating procedure for the reopening of the country’s borders, says Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

The Prime Minister said a decision on whether to open the borders must be looked into carefully as the government has been receiving a lot of feedback, including public views for more intervention to be done by the government, especially with regards to SOP due to concerns on Covid-19 transmission.
