Health DG: Most who fled EMCO area likely undocumented migrants
COVID-19 | Authorities believe that most of the residents who fled Medan 88 in Bandar Baru Salak Tinggi, Sepang are undocumented migrants, according to the Health director-general.
Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah said that the migrant workers might have been spooked by the government's decision to impose the enhanced movement control order (MCO) on the area due to a spike of Covid-19 cases there.
