KUALA LUMPUR – The National Security Council (NSC) today denied a statement that went viral recently saying that the movement control order will be implemented throughout Selangor either on May 4 or 5.
The NSC said that the statement, which included several instructions and recommendations related to the decision of the state Security Working Committee’s meeting on May 1, was false.
“The public is advised to stop disseminating unauthentic information that could cause confusion and unrest among the community,” it said.
The NSC also denied the validity of a poster entitled “SOP MOVEMENT CONTROL ORDER May 10-20, 2021” involving states classified under the implementation of the MCO, conditional movement control order, and recovery movement control order as spread on social media.
It said that the poster was fake as it has not yet issued any statement on the matter.
“The public is advised to stop the distribution of such posters which could cause public anger.” – Bernama, May 3, 2021
