We're not being hasty, relaxation doesn't mean end of MCO - Ismail Sabri
Defence Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob has defended the decision to reopen the economy next Monday, stressing that the government is not being hasty in allowing certain sectors to operate again, as it is merely a relaxation of rules and does not mean that the movement control order is over."For example, the Education Ministry still cannot operate, schools and universities still cannot operate.
"Gatherings are still not allowed... Just because we're opening up doesn't mean we are doing it hastily as claimed by some," he told a press conference in Putrajaya.
