Two Weeks Interstate Travel Ban to and From Sabah Starting Oct 12

The government has banned interstate travel to and from Sabah beginning October 12 until October 25, Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob said.



According to a report in Malay Mail, the defence minister said that special exemptions will be given for select cases, involving emergencies, deaths, needful services, and others, for which clearance must first be obtained from the Ministry of Health (MOH).
