KUALA LUMPUR:Three localities in Bentong district, Pahang will come under Enhanced Movement Control Order (EMCO) from tomorrow until Dec 23.
Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said the areas involved Ria Apartment, Amber Court Apartment and a workers’ quarters in Kampung Semaut, following 55 positive COVID-19 cases recorded in the sub-district.
“The majority of the cases were foreign workers in the localities and the risk evaluation of the Ministry of Health (MOH) found the three localities have high risk of spreading to more as the areas have a high density of occupants.
“The EMCO at the three localities would involve 4,351 residents,” he told a media conference on the development of Recovery Movement Control Order (RMCO) today.
In Sabah, Ismail Sabri said the EMCO at Taman Telipok Ria, Tuaran, would be extended by 14 days from Dec 11 to 24 on the advice and risk evaluation of MOH.
