KUALA LUMPUR: The communications and multimedia ministry has debunked as fake news another list of reports making the rounds on social media.

3. The National Security Council also denies that anyone who leaves their home to deliver food other than Foodpanda, GrabFood drivers and restaurants with permission will be slapped with a RM1,000 fine.

KUALA LUMPUR: The National Security Council (NSC) has dismissed as fake a social media post alleging that the owner of a popular bundle clothing business has died of Covid-19.

In a statement issued by the Communications and Multimedia Ministry’s Quick Response Team this morning, the Segamat Hospital in Johor denied that it will be used to house Covid-19 patients. The facility, however, has been gazetted as a screening hospital for Covid-19 patients under investigation.

The statement also read that Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) has shot down a rumour that payment transactions through credit and debit cards have been frozen for non-essential businesses from Friday until the Movement Control Order (MCO) ends.
