KUALA LUMPUR – Two localities in Sabah and one in Pahang will be placed under the enhanced movement control order (EMCO) from September 8 to September 21, following a risk assessment by the Health Ministry and the Covid-19 infection trend in the areas.

National Security Council director-general Datuk Rodzi Md Saad in a statement today said the affected areas in Sabah are Kg Pantai Emas and Kg Lentigi in Kota Belud.

He said in Pahang the area involved is Kg Dusun Pak Senam, Ulu Jelai sub-district in Lipis.
