MELAKA: Manufacturers were given the go-ahead for 24-hour operations in a relaxation of the national shutdown, but the state government said the ban on sports activities and restaurants in restaurants would remain.

“We allow 24-hour operations for the manufacturing industry, rather than 12 hours under the motion control order. Other economic or social activities are not allowed at this time, “said Prime Minister Sulaiman Md Ali.

He said that only the manufacturing industry could fully operate and that it would have to follow the procedures and guidelines established by the ministry of international trade and industry.

He said the decision was aimed at preventing more workers from losing their jobs, especially in the manufacturing sector due to the losses suffered by factories during the MCO period.

Operations in the economic sector, including the retail and other social sectors, are being finalized and will be decided by the Covid-19 special committee at a meeting today. The decisions would be announced in a day or two, he added.
