Huge gatherings at New Year Eve's celebrations to usher in 2021 are not allowed, said Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Ismail Sabri Yaakob today.
He said the risk of Covid-19 spreading was possible if the annual celebration, which is usually celebrated on a large scale, was permitted around the country.
“However, there are various ways to celebrate, such as privately, with the family at home and so on but mass gatherings are not allowed this time.
“This is because it will be hard for people to practise physical distancing and it would be difficult to control the crowd,” he said at a press conference on the development of the movement control order.
In another development, Ismail said so far, there was no proposal to re-impose interstate and inter-district travel restrictions as was implemented before.
