Strict MCO to stay under Phase 2 of national recovery plan, says Tengku Zafrul


Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz says life under Phase 2 of the national recovery plan will be as restricted as it is now, except for those in some industries which can increase their physical capacities to 80%. – The Malaysian Insight pic by Afif Abd Halim, June 20, 2021.

THE second phase of the National Recovery Plan, to be implemented after the country has achieved the threshold values set, will still be under a stringent movement-control order (MCO) with social activities being barred and movement curbs enforced like those in the first phase.

Finance Minister Tengku Zafrul Tengku Abdul Aziz said the main differences between Phase 1 and Phase 2 are the increase in the physical capacity allowed, from 60% to 80% for certain permitted sectors and the addition of more sectors to the “positive list” of those that are allowed to operate.
