Kelantan : CMCO / PKPB Lockdown Starting 21 November!

With record highs in COVID-19 cases, the Malaysian National Security Council announced a 2-week CMCO / PKPB lockdown of Kelantan.

This CMCO / PKPB lockdown will start at 12:01 AM on 21 November 2020 and end on 6 December 2020, together with the other Peninsular Malaysia states under CMCO.

Kelantan CMCO : Same SOP As Peninsular Malaysia CMCO?

The Malaysia National Security Council has not announced any special SOP for this new CMCO / PKPB.
