Posted on July 15 2020
Good news! If you haven’t caught up with the latest update already, RMCO (Recovery Movement Control Order) has officially started since June 10th and will continue till August 31st, 2020.
With the new phase of MCO, day-to-day operations within Malaysia will be a lot more relaxed thanks to the Government’s proactive steps taken to curb the number of Covid-19 cases in our country. With the past few bleak months behind us, it’s now time to bid adieu to home quarantine and finally say Hi to stepping outside the house!
Although RMCO has been announced – there are some DO’s and DONT’s guidelines during this last phase of MCO. To firmly ensure that the entire country is free from Covid-19, we must carry out all our outdoor activities with maximum care. So, the Government has laid down a few SOP’s for the same.
To briefly touch upon the guidelines:
DO’s-
- Commercial events that involve marketing and promotional activities
- Meetings, workshops, seminars, lectures, and conferences
- Engagement receptions, Wedding anniversary and birthday celebrations, and Religious ceremonies
- Beauty salons and parlours have resumed operations with strict adherence to SOPs
- Inter-state travel
- Schools, Childcare center
- Restaurants and Mamak eateries
- Opening of morning markets, night markets, and bazaars
- Gyms, indoor sports venues, halls, and snooker centers
- Religious activities in mosques and other houses of worship at a limited capacity
DONT’s –
- Overseas travel of Malaysians and inbound travels involving foreign tourists entering Malaysia
- Watersports like swimming as well as tournaments and sports competitions
- Pubs, Nightclubs, Reflexology Centers, Karaoke Centers, Theme Parks, mass religious and other activities that make it difficult to adhere to social distancing
So, if you’re looking to organize events involving social gatherings such as weddings, product launch, office events and birthdays or any commercial and promotional events, follow the SOP guidelines of the new norm and you’re good to go.
Please ensure that social distancing measures are taken care, hand sanitizers are provided, face masks are worn by all, disinfecting of every nook and corner of the premises is done and entry and exit points of the venue are kept under control.
Gradually, as the government is working on recovering the lost economy of our country, individuals and businesses like yourself are also looking to transition back to pre-MCO life.
