Malaysia has been doing really well on the Covid-19 front.
Ever since the MCO was implemented, and extended several times, they’re now consistently reporting two-digit new cases daily.
Results were so promising that ahead of the lifting of MCO on 12 May, Malaysia’s prime minister announced on Labour Day that they are going to lift some of the restrictions on 4 May 2020.
One thing that every country is worried about, however, is the opening of their borders.
While they might’ve managed to control the Covid-19 virus within their countries very well, a single import case could lead to a second outbreak of epic proportions.
And Malaysia is dealing with that problem as well.
More Malaysians in Singapore are seeking to return home after most workplaces are shut down due to the circuit breaker measures.
M’sians in S’pore Returning Home
Since 26 Apr, only 400 Malaysians in Singapore are allowed to return back to their home country per day.
And every single one of them has to apply for and obtain an entry permit before they can do so.
Upon their arrival, they will be quarantined at designated facilities for two weeks before being allowed home.
Applications must be made at least two days before they want to enter Malaysia.
And it seems their precautions have paid off.
M’sia Reported 3 of Their New Cases Are Imported from S’pore
On 1 May, the Johor state government announced that three new Covid-19 cases are import cases from Singapore.
“The three new cases are not local cases, but rather imported cases by Malaysian citizens from Singapore.”
They were tested positive while undergoing their quarantine period at one of the isolation facilities.
Johor currently has 663 cases with no deaths recorded.
Situation In M’sia
At the time of writing, the number of cases in the whole of Malaysia stands at 6,071.
There were 69 more Covid-19 cases reported on 1 May, Malaysia’s 17th day of reporting double-digits.
57 of them are local transmissions while 12 of them are import cases.
There’s also one new death, a 66-year-old patient with a history of cancer.
This brings the total number of deaths in Malaysia up to 103.
