A number of areas in Selangor and Kuala Lumpur including the sub-district of Petaling, will be placed under enhanced movement control order for 14 days beginning July 3 in order to address the continued trend of high cases in these two states.

Senior Minister for Security Ismail Sabri Yaakob said all access to these areas will be sealed off.

Residents will be barred from leaving their homes, and only one household representative will be allowed to venture out to buy basic necessities within a radius of 10km.

Those who need to cross district and state lines to be vaccinated will also be allowed to travel, with proof of their appointments.

Meanwhile, the health ministry will perform targeted screening on residents in these areas.

Residents will not be allowed to leave their homes after 8pm except in emergency cases or with police permission, and only essential services will be allowed to remain open, from 8am to 8pm.

Only those in essential services or on official government business with letters of confirmation from their workers or a valid employee pass will be allowed to go to work. All others are prohibited from leaving the EMCO area.

For taxis and e-hailing rides, a maximum of two people are allowed per vehicle including the driver.
