KOTA KINABALU – Non-Sabahans entering the state Monday onwards no longer need to seek approval from the state government and police – with conditions.

Sabah Covid-19 spokesman Datuk Seri Masidi Manjun said individuals who are allowed to do so must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 and have a negative RTK-Ag test.

He added that this is in line with the state government’s decision to lift the interstate travel ban on Monday.

“A set of revised standard operating procedures will be announced later,” he said in a statement today.

On October 13, Chief Minister Datuk Hajiji Mohd Noor was reported as saying that the state government had agreed to lift the travel ban with conditions in place. – The Vibes, October 30, 2021
