Asalamualaikom Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh,
Dear fellow Malaysians, please abide by the movement control order imposed by my government.
- Don’t leave home if there are no pressing matters.
- Don’t ‘balik kampung’ unless if it is an emergency.
- This movement control order is imposed to ensure the safety and well being of every Malaysian as we are facing a serious threat from the outbreak of Covid-19 virus infection.
- It is a deadly virus. Do not gather or attend any social activities outside home.
- My government has guaranteed sufficient stock and supply of all essential items throughout this two-week restrictions, so there is no need for panic buying.
- I call upon every Malaysian to be responsible and not spread fake news and cause unnecessary panic among us.
- Please observe personal hygiene, wash your hands frequently, use hand sanitizer and face mask. Stay safe and practise social distancing.
- We will get through this together, as Malaysians, as one country.
- This is the time for us to be strong and persevere.
- Insyaallah, we shall prevail.
