KUALA LUMPUR, March 31 -- Jogging, apprehending members of the public while impersonating a police officer, and loafing around with friends, were among the violations of the Movement Control Order committed by 367 individuals brought before the Magistrates and Sessions courts in several states today.

The courts imposed jail sentences, as well as fines on the offenders after they pleaded guilty to the offences committed between March 24 and 29 in contravention of the government’s Movement Control Order to contain COVID-19, effective March 18 to April 14.

Among the charges brought against the 367 were obstructing a civil servant in the course of conducting his duty which is an offence under section 186 of the Penal Code which provides for a maximum jail term of two years or a fine of RM10,000 or both, while the offence of impersonating a police officer as charged under section 170 of the same law, carries a penalty of a jail term of up to two years or a fine or both.


The offenders were also charged under Regulation 3(1) of the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Measures within the Infected Local Areas) Regulations 2020, with non-compliance of the Movement Control Order, by moving from one place to another. The provision carries a maximum penalty of imprisonment of six months or a fine of RM1,000 or both.

At the Magistrates Court here, a total of 15 men were charged. These included nine foreigners and two locals who were arrested while jogging on Jalan Mont Kiara and Jalan Desa Kiara here.

EVALUASI RINGKAS SITUASI SELEPAS PELAKSANAAN PERINTAH KAWALAN PERGERAKAN SELAMA DUA (2) MINGGU
Setelah dua minggu pelaksanaan Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP), kita dapat melihat tren jumlah kes baharu yang dilaporkan setiap hari (Lampiran 2). Didapati jumlah kes harian terus meningkat dan kadang kala mendatar, manakala jumlah kes harian yang didiscaj dari wad meningkat saban hari. Data ini menunjukkan kesan daripada aktiviti yang dijalankan oleh KKM dan pelbagai agensi dalam tempoh satu bulan kebelakangan ini. Namun begitu, tempoh dua minggu yang seterusnya adalah mustahak, di mana ia akan menentukan samada tindakan yang diambil oleh kerajaan setakat ini memberi impak yang diharapkan. Ini sememangnya berkait rapat dengan tingkah laku masyarakat dalam mematuhi Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan ini.
Statistik juga menunjukkan terdapat dua (2) kumpulan umur masyarakat yang paling tinggi kes positif COVID-19 berbanding kumpulan umur yang lain. Dua kumpulan tersebut adalah dalam lingkungan 26 sehingga 30 tahun dan juga 56 sehingga 60 tahun.
NASIHAT KESIHATAN BERKAITAN COVID-19
Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan (PKP) fasa kedua akan mula berkuatkuasa pada 1 April 2020 sehingga 14 April 2020, manakala beberapa lokasi telah diisytihar sebagai lokasi Perintah Kawalan Pergerakan Diperketatkan (Enhanced Movement Control Order). Seperti dimaklumkan, tempoh dua minggu akan datang ini adalah amat penting di mana kerjasama semua pihak adalah amat diperlukan bagi memastikan rantaian jangkitan COVID-19 dapat diputuskan.
Justeru, KKM ingin menasihatkan orang ramai untuk duduk di rumah (‘stay at home’) sambil mengamalkan etika kebersihan diri misalnya kerap membasuh tangan dan jarakkan diri (sosial distancing) antara satu sama lain. Sekiranya mempunyai gejala, gunakan penutup hidung dan mulut. Selain itu, orang ramai juga dinasihatkan mengamalkan perkara-perkara berikut;
  • Makan secara sihat dengan menyediakan menu sihat dan seimbang. Kurangkan pengambilan gula, garam dan lemak, manakala lebihkan pengambilan buah-buahan dan sayur-sayuran.
  • Jalani gaya hidup yang aktif dengan melakukan aktiviti fizikal ataupun senaman ringan.
  • Bagi mereka yang merokok, gunakan peluang ini untuk berhenti merokok. Bukan perokok pula boleh ‘speak out’ kepada ahli keluarga yang merokok agar semua bebas daripada bahaya rokok dan asap rokok.
  • Pupuk minda yang positif diri sendiri dan juga ahli keluarga. Amalkan teknik relaksasi yang betul dan tenangkan minda dalam menjalani kehidupan seharian.
Sekiranya diperlukan khidmat nasihat, orang awam boleh menghubungi virtual health advisory dari 8.30 pagi hingga 5.00 petang setiap hari dan mengikuti sesi Facebook live KKM dari 10.00 pagi hingga 10.30 pagi dan Facebook live DoctorOnCall dari 3.00 petang hingga 3.30 petang yang akan diadakan dari hari Isnin sehingga Jumaat.
Orang awam juga boleh menghubungi talian CPRC Kebangsaan, KKM. Maklumat lanjut mengenai kejadian COVID-19 di Malaysia boleh juga didapati melalui saluran telegram CPRC Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia; https://t.me/cprckkm.
KKM akan terus memantau perkembangan kejadian jangkitan ini melalui segala maklumat yang diperolehi dan akan dimaklumkan kepada rakyat dari semasa ke semasa.
Sekian, terima kasih.

FT Minister - Ramadan bazaars will be held with better management


Ramadan bazaars will be held with better management - Annuar Musa

31/03/2020 02:12 PM
PUTRAJAYA, March 31 -- The management of Ramadan bazaars in the Federal territories will be modified from this year to prevent congestion at the stalls, said Federal Territories Minister Tan Sri Annuar Musa.

He said the ministry will work with the relevant parties on this before making an announcement soon.

“Just because Singapore or other parties have announced that there will be no bazaars this year does not mean we will say the same thing,” he told the media before viewing the disinfection works carried out at shops in Presint 15 here today.


He said the Ramadan bazaars will not be cancelled but will be adjusted as they were needed by the people, especially those living in the cities.

“We have to think of the need of rural folks who do not have the time to cook after returning from work,” he said.

"I want this matter to be looked at as previous Ramadhan bazaars were usually big and spread out, and we probably cannot do the same (this year),” he said.


He added that the Ramadan bazaars this year could be held with up to 50 stalls in any one place, maybe even only 10 stalls which are spaced out and opened in many places.

“Whether the Movement Control Order (MCO) is continued or not, we will not carry on with the old way which could cause health problems,”.

“We have to improve our lifestyle, not just exercise self-discipline during the MCO, there are many things we can learn and continue to practise post-MCO,” he said.

Local Manufacture says Face Mask Price too low, will stop output- Ceiling Price @RM0.80 before increase to RM2 in Mid March now @ RM1.50,

BEST FBKL: Government should take action against this company, not long ago in Mid March the ceiling price was 0.80 sen , no one complained, now at RM1.50 they are threatening to  stop production,


Price too low, face mask producer says will stop output

The new cap on the price of face masks will only benefit importers, says a local manufacturer. (Bernama pic)

PETALING JAYA: A local manufacturer has expressed disappointment with the new RM1.50 ceiling price for face masks, saying it will only benefit importers, not domestic producers.

Haminnuddin Hamid, chief executive of Ideal Healthcare Sdn Bhd, said local manufacturers were disadvantaged because of higher import duties and costs for raw materials compared to finished products.

He told FMT his company will cease its production of face masks once it has used up all its available materials.

“This is simply because it is difficult to get raw materials from overseas as the price keeps increasing,” he said.





Haminnuddin said the company’s current capacity is 18 million pieces a year, and Ideal Healthcare accounts for about 25% of Malaysia’s domestic production.

“We are one of the 5 major manufacturers listed in the domestic trade ministry list before the national shutdown,” he said. The other producers are Medidata Sdn Bhd, Creative Contract Sdn Bhd, Cross Protection Sdn Bhd, and Medipro Sdn Bhd.

On Feb 7, domestic trade minister Saifuddin Nasution Ismail said manufacturers had been asked to increase production by an extra 400,000 pieces a day.

Face masks are a price-controlled item and the price of 3-ply surgical masks had been set at 80 sen each prior to the Covid-19 outbreak.

Haminnuddin had previously told FMT that material costs for the production of face masks had gone up by more than 600%. He had defended an increase of the ceiling price to RM2, announced by the domestic trade ministry last week.

However, senior minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced today that the price of face masks will be capped at RM1.50 apiece from April 1.



In response, a consumer group has urged that face masks be made an essential item, saying that the new price would prevent traders from taking advantage of the demand and increasing their prices.

Family of 7 including a Doctor from Teluk Intan Hospital warded together after testing positive for Covid-19


No negativity for this positive family

Spirits up: Dr Samsu Ambia and his family posing for a photo in quarantine at the Teluk Intan Hospital.


PETALING JAYA: A family of seven who tested positive for Covid-19, and whose cheerful Tik Tok video went viral, intends to make the best of their time while being quarantined at the Teluk Intan Hospital. It’s already been a week since

the family of Teluk Intan Hospital Emergency and Trauma Department head Dr Samsu


Ambia Ismail had been warded together.

With him are his wife Mazrieni Mahd Zaki, 39, their five children – daughters Erika Syamim (18), Elisya Syamim (15), Edrieba Syamim (13), Eryna Syamim (11) and son Eiman Syamim (8). With each other for company and keeping themselves busy making Tik Tok videos – while keeping up to date on the “outside world” via the Internet – the family has now become a social media sensation for being so upbeat.


Speaking to The Star by phone from the ward, Dr Samsu Ambia and Mazrieni said they hope their family would all be discharged.

“I do not blame anyone and we thank everyone – from the specialist to the odd worker – taking care of us – as every one is a warrior in this battle, ” said Dr Samsu Ambia.

Teluk Intan Hospital is the worst infected hospital in the country with 37 staff having tested positive for Covid-19.

Mazrieni is relieved that her children are all doing fine.

“I hope that we’ll get to go through this as a family and be discharged from the hospital as a family too. “We hope that the Tik Tok video of us that everyone is seeing on

@errikaaaaaaaa becomes an inspiration and helps other patients to feel better and stronger as they battle the virus, ” said the homemaker.

Eldest child Erika said that except for their father, all of them were “fine with mild symptoms”.

Her father, she said, found it hard to swallow and had trouble eating as well as taking his medicine.“It is boring being stuck here but as long as we are together, we can be very ‘happening’ and can have fun.

“I feel bad for those stuck in quarantine and cannot be with their families. I pray those people stay strong.

“For us, even if we feel sickly, the siblings would try to hype the situation to cheer everyone up.

“In here, we can either watch YouTube all day, play games together or fight with each other like what siblings normally do.

“We love making videos. We don’t really post them anywhere except for that one I posted on Twitter, ” she said.

Erika said the family had a routine which included praying and reading the Quran.

She added that the family usually returned to their home state in Kelantan during school holidays but they delayed their return when her father got ill.

She said her father’s first test for Covid-19 was negative.

“After a few more days, he kept getting sick and he did the test again, only to find he was positive.

“Then they tested us and found we were all positive. It wasn’t really a shock to us, as we already expected it, ” said Erika.

Take MCO seriously as Covid-19 cases are increasing, Annuar Musa warns KL folk

THE STAR

Sunday, 29 Mar 20205:09 PM MYT

By SHALINI RAVINDRAN








KUALA LUMPUR: Covid-19 cases are increasing here and Tan Sri Annuar Musa is appealing to city folk to take the movement control order (MCO) more seriously.

The Federal Territories Minister said there was an upward trend in the number of positive cases being recorded in Kuala Lumpur.


"Areas in Kuala Lumpur have been classified as Covid-19 'red zones' and 'yellow zones'.

"It is not only Lembah Pantai and Titiwangsa that have recorded high cases, but also areas such as the vicinity of Jalan Masjid India.

"We have to take this seriously as an outbreak in a high-density area can cause the number of cases escalate," he said during a press conference that was streamed live on his ministry's Facebook page on Sunday (March 29).

Annuar added Sri Petaling currently tops the list with the most infections, followed by Kampung Baru and Bukit Damansara.

Titiwangsa and Lembah Pantai had been classified as Covid-19 red zones, with 40 cases were recorded in these areas.

"Unfortunately, we still find many people are not complying with the rules and guidelines set in place.

"The police have informed us that they are seeing an increase of vehicles entering the city, congregating in public spaces and even people taking their children out," he said.

The minister acknowledged that it was not easy to practise social distancing, but this was a vital measure to curb the spread of the virus.

"Even I was admonished for not practising effective social distancing during a sanitisation exercise at Sri Petaling yesterday (March 28), and I agree that it could have been done better," he added.

He also said that only the public could break the chain of infection by adhering to the MCO.
