KUALA LUMPUR: The government has been urged to consider allowing book, stationery, computer and telecommunications shops to resume operations without having to wait until the Movement Control under the National Recovery Plan (NRP) enters the second phase.

National Student Consultative Council (MPPK) president Muhammad Amir Asyraf Mohd Sabri said this was in view of the ongoing home-based teaching and learning session for school students and online classes for tertiary students.
