PETALING JAYA: The government has put in place a six-step plan to address the impact of Covid-19 and ensure that the country emerges stronger from the ravages of the virus, says Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.
The Prime Minister said the first step was to break the chain of infections by imposing the movement control order , then secondly by focusing on ensuring the resilience of the country's economy.
"This is the balancing act Malaysia is trying to achieve – between kickstarting our economy, and the importance of adhering to new standard operating procedures to prevent another wave of infections amongst the population. "The success of these six ‘Rs' I have mentioned today – resolve, resilience, restart, recovery, revitalise, and reform – will greatly depend on the strength of our people in facing this ‘new normal’. Things will never be the same again, and we must try our level best to return our nations to some semblance of normalcy.
"Malaysia believes that NAM must play a more significant role to champion access and acquisition for smaller nations in obtaining medical supplies, medications and vaccine once they are developed," he said.
