PUTRAJAYA: Appreciate the sacrifices made by the nation's frontliners in the fight against Covid-19 by adhering to directives under the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO).
The advice was made by Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob to Malaysians who will celebrate Hari Raya Aidilfitri tomorrow.
"A majority of frontliners, including the police, Fire and Rescue Department personnel, Immigration Department officers, the People's Volunteers Corps (Rela), doctors, nurses and hospital staff, amongst others, will be working during Hari Raya Aidilfitri.
"Please do not let their hard work be in vain.
"If you appreciate the sacrifices made by them, follow all Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and regulations introduced by the government under the CMCO," he said in his press conference here today.
Ismail Sabri, who is also the Defence Minister, also reminded the people that recreational activities which involve large groups of people are still prohibited under the CMCO.
"I believe that there are people who want to play firecrackers in the evening on the first day of Hari Raya.
"Such activity, however, is not allowed if it involves a large group of people and that is included in the list of activities prohibited during the CMCO," he said.
He also urged parents to exercise caution when taking their children to playgrounds.
"As previously announced, recreational activities (involving small numbers of people) are allowed during the CMCO.
"If you want to bring one or two of your children to a playground, it is allowed. However, it this results in a mass gathering, it would fall under the list of prohibited activities.
"Taking our children to places which have crowds will risk (exposing them to the Covid-19 coronavirus)," he added.
