In most states, Malaysia placed a monthlong conditional movement order as on Friday the number of daily cases of coronavirus hit a high.
The restrictions will end on Dec. 6, reporters were told by Defense Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob on Saturday. The partial lockdown in the Kuala Lumpur capital, as well as the Selangor and Sabah states, will be extended as it expires on Monday, he said.
The curbs would not extend, without elaboration, to the states of Perlis, Pahang and Kelantan in peninsular Malaysia, and the state of Sarawak on Borneo Island, he said.
Malaysia reported the largest single-day rise in new cases on Friday since the outbreak started, amid tighter restrictions on travel. A revival of coronavirus infections that emerged in late September after local elections in Sabah has been struggling to contain it.
Recently, the government directed about 1 million individuals to operate from home and prohibited all social and cultural practices to regulate the spread. New infections topped 1,000 for four straight days this week.
