Six states will not reopen their economies tomorrow and will maintain movement control order (MCO) restrictions.
These states are Sarawak, Sabah, Penang, Pahang, Kelantan and Kedah.
Penang will resume business on May 8 But it will maintain other MCO restrictions, such as the ban on recreational activities until May 12.
Pahang, Kelantan and Kedah will discuss whether to reopen their economies later in the week.
The Johor government is expected to take a position when the state security council meets tomorrow.
So far Terengganu is the only state that has declared who will return to business from tomorrow.
At the time of writing, the position of the Perlis and Malacca governments is unclear.
Malacca Prime Minister Sulaiman Md Ali said yesterday that his state would resume business by sharing a list of activities still prohibited on their Facebook page.
Selangor, Perak and Negri Sembilan will resume business tomorrow. All three states will not allow customers to dine.
Negri will maintain a ban on recreational activities while Perak maintains a ban on park visits.
Selangor will allow visits to the park but not to gyms, swimming pools and hiking trails.
List of prohibited activities during the conditional MCO
On May 1, Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin announced that most economic activities that do not involve large meetings will be able to resume operations tomorrow.
He called this new regulation a “conditional MCO,” which will last until May 12, although it is subject to extensions.
Muhyiddin said that all forms of economic activities must adopt guidelines established by the National Security Council to reduce the probability of new Covid-19 outbreaks.
However, state governments can restrict the restrictions if they deem it necessary.
Perak, Penang, Kedah and Kelantan have had no new cases of Covid-19 in more than two weeks.
Chief Minister (security group) Ismail Sabri Yaakob warned that the risk of Covid-19 infections can last up to two years. Therefore, Malays will have to adapt and get on with life.
