ALOR SETAR, May 2 — Kedah hopes that Ramadan and Aidilfitri bazaars in its five districts that have been placed under the movement control order (MCO) will be given the flexibility to operate under strict standard operating procedures (SOPs).

Mentri Besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor said he would raise the matter in the special National Security Council meeting, which will be chaired by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin at 2.30pm tomorrow.

“I will attend the meeting virtually. I will raise the issue of traders who are not willing to bear the excess burden due to the closure of the Aidilfitri and Ramadan bazaars.

“Hopefully, there will be some good news tomorrow for the five districts placed under the MCO,” he said in a statement posted on his Facebook page today.

On last Friday, Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob was reported to have said that five districts in Kedah, namely Kota Setar, Kuala Muda, Bandar Baharu, Baling and Kulim would be placed under the MCO for two weeks until May 14. — Bernama

  1. It is quite understand that politicians fight for their constituents.

    But emotion should not get in the way of hard science. It really would be moronic, if not unethical to have the bazaars at a time of surges in the covid infections.
