GEORGE TOWN: The moment the borders reopened, a British couple wasted no time hopping on a plane to Penang, which had been their regular holiday destination before Covid-19 turned things upside down.

Malaysia’s borders opened on April 1 and five days later, Peter Dunstan Kelly, 69, and Deborah Kelly, 61, arrived here.
