PETALING JAYA: Thailand has barred the movement of people at all its nine border checkpoints, including ports effective Sunday (March 22) in a move to contain the spread of Covid-19.

All checkpoints at Malaysia, Laos, Cambodia and Myanmar borders are temporarily closed until further notice.

"During the temporary closure of borders, all foreign and Thai nationals are barred from criss-crossing in and out of Thailand via land and sea," said a statement issued by South-East Asian's Thai foreign desk. Although Thailand has banned movement of people across borders, it continues to allow transportation of goods across designated checkpoints.
