Health Minister Dr Zaliha Mustafa said her ministry is taking a heedful approach before making any announcement, taking into account that Malaysia is still designated under local areas of infection until the end of this month.
“Hence, in the middle of June we will go through the SOPs,” she told reporters after the launch of Kuala Lumpur Wellness City (KLWC) at the KLWC sales gallery, Bukit Jalil, here today.
She also said that the amendment to the SOPs might include the removal of the facemask mandate on public transport.
“We also have to see (COVID-19) cases (trend) as it is something that we cannot predict, for example, we may face a spike of cases during festive seasons, so we have to manage that, and then we will decide,” she said.
On May 30, Dr Zaliha was reported to have said that MOH was in the midst of updating the SOPs, and would make an announcement regarding the matter soon.–BERNAMA
