Taking no chances: Police officers advising people not to stroll along the Kuching Waterfront due to the MCO.

PETALING JAYA: Those who do not abide by the directives under the movement control order (MCO) can be fined not more than RM1,000 or jailed for not more than six months or both, says a Federal Government Gazette.

The punishment is provided under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases (Measures within the Local Infected Areas) Regulations 2020 based on a federal gazette that bars individuals from travelling to another place declared as an infected area published by the Attorney General’s Chambers.
