Let’s stay calm and tackle the COVID-19 challenge together. In response to the impact of the novel coronavirus, Malaysia announced a “Movement Control Order” (MCO) from March 18 to March 31, effective as of 10:00 PM on March 16 (11:00 PM Japan Time). In simple terms, this means prohibiting foreigners from entering the country and restricting Malaysian citizens from leaving.
