Sep 03, 2020

Johor and Penang are now free of Covid-19!

This comes after the Health Ministry declared that the Segamat, Barat Daya and Timur Laut districts are green zones as they no longer have clusters or cases.

However, it urged the public not to take things lightly and reminded that the new norms should still be adhered to.

Johor and Penang join Terengganu, Kelantan and Perak and Negri Sembilan as states that are considered green zones with zero cases up until yesterday.

Kedah is the state with the most number of cases at 27.

Bukit Aman is expecting to complete its investigation into a Minister, who recently failed to follow Covid-19 quarantine SOPs upon returning from abroad, soon.

They say the investigatiors still needed to verify some matters regarding to this case.

The Plantation Industries and Commodities Minister received public criticism after he was only fined 1,000 ringgit for skipping his home quarantine.

The appointment of the next MACC chief will be approved by Parliament based on the Federal Constitution.

The current MACC head says the Cabinet also agreed that the termination of an MACC chief commissioner should go through a special tribunal.

He says this was decided during a recent special Cabinet meeting on corruption, which was chaired by the PM.
