KUALA LUMPUR – The Defence Ministry today clarified that the new operating hours for daily markets in areas under the conditional movement control order (CMCO) are from 6am to 4pm.
The ministry's Strategic Communications Unit said in a statement today there was an error in Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob's announcement yesterday.
Ismail Sabri had said the government had agreed to extend operating hours for these markets from 10am to 4pm effective today.
Rela volunteers will monitor operations at markets to ensure compliance with standard operating procedures to curb the spread of Covid-19, he had said. – Bernama, November 28, 2020
