Please let hair salons reopen


IT is the duty of all responsible Malaysians to play our roles in continuing the battle against Covid-19. Almost all sectors of our embattled economy are now reopening and starting the journey towards recovery.

But hair salons and hairdressers are not so fortunate. I have to bring to the attention of the government, particularly the Health director-general, the plight of 15,000 businesses, many of them on the verge of closure, and 60,000 workers who are suffering as their industry remains closed due to the movement control order (MCO).
