Muhyiddin also expressed his gratitude that the practice of social distancing had succeeded in preventing him from being infected with the virus and being negatively diagnosed with COVID-19.
"This shows how important it is for us to practise social distancing to prevent being infected by the virus. So, my advice is to practise social distancing wherever you are.
"It may be a last protection or fortress for all of us from being infected," he said in his special address here today.
He said the instruction for social distancing was applied at each of his meetings.
