Sarawak bans New Year's Eve festivities


KUCHING: The Sarawak State Disaster Management Committee (SDMC) has prohibited the holding of any activities to usher in the New Year as the state is still under Phase Three of the National Recovery Plan which requires business premises to cease operations by midnight daily.

Sarawak SDMC, in a statement on Tuesday (Dec 28), said operators of business premises found breaching this ban would be compounded and that enforcement authorities would intensify integrated operations to monitor compliance with the standard operating procedure (SOP).
