Malaysia currently identifying travel bubbles with other nations

Apr 23, 2021

The government is currently identifying travel bubbles, apart from Singapore, as it waits for countries to open up borders amidst the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Tourism, Arts and Culture Ministry says many other countries are still not opening up their borders to travellers, similar to Malaysia.

Meanwhile, the Sabah-Singapore travel bubble plans are still at the planning stage.

Malaysia has reported a rise in new COVID-19 cases, with almost 3,000 infections.

The Health Ministry reported 2,875 yesterday, with 73% of these cases collectively recorded in Kelantan, Selangor, Sarawak and KL alone.

Perlis was the only state that had zero new cases.

Another 3 schools have been ordered to close in Johor.

This brings the total schools in the state that have been closed to 30.

Over in Kedah, an educational institution was ordered to close after 35 of its students tested positive for the coronavirus.
