PETALING JAYA: The conditional movement control order (CMCO) for all districts in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur will be extended until Jan 14 next year, said Senior Minister for Security Ismail Sabri Yaakob.

Speaking at a press conference, Ismail said this was due to the high number of active cases in the affected areas.

The CMCO for Selangor and Kuala Lumpur had been scheduled to end on Dec 31, except in the Sabak Bernam, Hulu Selangor and Kuala Selangor districts, which were not affected.

The CMCO for all districts in Sabah, too, has been extended until Jan 14.

For Penang, the CMCO for two subdistricts, Mukim 12 in the south-west district and Mukim 13 in the north-east district, will be extended starting Jan 1 until Jan 14.

For Negeri Sembilan, the CMCO in Seremban will be extended until Jan 14 while the CMCO at Port Dickson will end today.

Meanwhile, the enhanced MCO (EMCO) at the Seremban prison and its staff quarters will end today.

The CMCO in Johor Bahru and Batu Pahat will be extended until Jan 14, but the partial lockdown in Kulai will end today. The EMCO at the Kluang prison and its staff quarters has also been extended until Jan 14.

In Perak, Ismail said the CMCO at Ipoh and Chemor, in the Hulu Kinta subdistrict will end today, ahead of schedule.

However, the EMCO at Langkap immigration detention depot and its staff quarters in the Hilir Perak district will be extended for two weeks following the rise in positive cases.

Ismail added that Madrasah Daril Naim, Padang Halban in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, will be under EMCO from tomorrow until Jan 11.

This was done on the advice of the health ministry, which has recorded 29 positive cases in the locality so far.
