PUTRAJAYA, March 20 — The current weeklong school holiday is extended to March 31, Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced today. Schools, which closed on March 14 for the First Term holidays, were originally scheduled to reopen on March 22 or 23. Ismail Sabri advised families which have already returned to their villages and hometowns as the Movement Control Order came into force to remain there until March 31 and not return to Kuala Lumpur any time before that date.
