Day 6 #MCO #PKP

MCO Period : 18.03.2020 – 31.03.2020

A rather unusually quiet day with little serious news of interest on Day 6 of the MCO. Only sad to learn that there have been 14 deaths recorded, succumbing to COVID-19.

Day 6.
A quiet day humoured by contradictory statements frm officials that one cannot be blamed for all the confusions. Also, many facts that werent mentioned before hv become regulations. 🤔
And culminates with a sad closure for the day. #COVID19malaysia #StayHome #DudukRumah https://t.co/TvmkkjsKct
