KUALA LUMPUR – The Legal Affairs Division, the Legal Aid Department headquarters and the Malaysian Insolvency Department, which operate in the Legal Affairs Division building in Precinct 3, Putrajaya, will be closed today and tomorrow for sanitisation and disinfection.

In a statement, the Legal Affairs Division corporate communications unit said the measure is taken to ensure the health and safety of employees and members of the public, who have dealings with the departments in the building.

“As such, all services and face-to-face appointments at the affected departments have been postponed until they reopen on Wednesday,” the statement read.
