| The Higher Education Ministry has been advised to be patient before allowing those stranded in student accommodations during the current movement control order to go home.
“Seeing as we are entering an important phase, Phase 3, we need to tighten our controls to lower the number of cases. “So our advice to the is to be patient, maybe in a week or two. Soonest in a week, we will look at the latest data. Once we have the latest data in Phase 3 then we can advise the ministry,” he said at a press conference in Putrajaya today.
