This would apply to all states, except for Kedah, Terengganu, Kelantan and Johor, as Labour Day fell on a Sunday, which is a working day in these states, he said in a statement late yesterday.

However, it is still up to the respective states’ authorities to make any announcements regarding the declaration of the holiday, he added. – The Vibes, May 2, 2022
