“All entrances to the EMCO area are closed where the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM), the Malaysian Armed Forces (ATM), the Malaysian Civil Defence Force (APM), the Selayang Municipal Council (MPS) and the Malaysian Volunteer Department (RELA) will control the entire area to make sure this order is obeyed,” he said.
