GEORGE TOWN – Penang police have advised those who have fully completed their vaccination shots to prepare a screenshot of their MySejahtera digital certificates for police personnel to speed up checks at roadblocks in the state.
Penang deputy police chief Datuk Fisol Salleh said people must show the screenshots to police at roadblocks if they wish to travel across district borders, which is allowed beginning tomorrow.
“To make things easier for our frontliners at roadblocks, those who have completed both shots are advised to prepare screenshots on their mobile phones for inspection by police,” he said in a statement today.
According to the Health Ministry, around 61.7% of Penang’s adult population have received their first vaccination shot, while around 27% have received both shots.
Fisol added that the regulations issued yesterday clearly stated the conditions set for social sector, sports, and recreational activities, and advised the public to always comply with the standard operating procedures.
“The Penang police have been ordered to monitor so that everyone complies with the strict SOPs at all premises,” he added. – Bernama, August 9, 2021
