PETALING JAYA: More people are likely to take their frustrations to the streets if the economic sector remains closed, an MP has warned, as economic experts urge Putrajaya to review its lockdown policies.

Klang MP Charles Santiago said the government could no longer wait till daily Covid-19 cases drop to 4,000 to move into Phase 2 of the national recovery plan.

Selangor and Kuala Lumpur are currently under Phase 1, or total lockdown, imposed since June 1, allowing only essential sectors to operate.


Yesterday, the health ministry reported almost 20,000 new Covid-19 cases in the country.

With cases rising, Santiago said the government needed to rethink its strategies.
