KUALA LUMPUR – Another restaurant in Bangsar Shopping Centre (BSC) has been closed since yesterday after staff members tested positive for Covid-19.

Ina statement last night, the Oriental Group said several kitchen staff at The Ming Room tested positive and outlet has been closed for sanitisation works.

“All our staff at the outlet have been sent for RT-PCR testing and are under necessary quarantine according the Health Ministry guidelines.

“The ministry will conduct contact tracing and customers may refer to it for further verification.”
