Operators must adhere to the strict SOP which include wearing face masks, disposable apron and gloves. Car wash centres are also allowed to operate until 10pm.

Meanwhile, Pasar Malam can reopen from 4pm to 10pm. Night market operators must ensure social distancing with a minimum distance of 1 metre between stalls, having dedicated entry and exit points with one-way flow and monitoring by RELA.
