In Malaysia, the first flight of the Corona vaccine arrived yesterday on February 21, and it was announced that the vaccination will be given priority from medical staff and school teachers from February 26.
In Sabah, where Kota Kinabalu is located, there are days when the number of newly infected people becomes double digits, and I think that the momentum of infection is gradually slowing down. The number of newly infected people in Sabah on February 21st yesterday was 85.
The activity restriction order (MCO) has also been relaxed in Sabah, and it has shifted to the conditional activity restriction order (CMCO), and eating and drinking at restaurants and hotel pools and guest rooms are now open.
The photo shows the pool at Shangri-La Rasa Ria Resort, but the number of people is properly displayed for each pool, and the entrance and exit are also fixed.
In addition, it was announced that Malaysia's elementary, junior high and high schools will finally resume from the beginning of March, and I believe that we are making progress, albeit little by little, and we will continue to adhere to the SOP and overcome it.
Travel across districts and states remains severely restricted.

In some states and islands in Malaysia, including Sabah, where Kota Kinabalu is located, the activity restriction order (MCO) will be re-enforced from January 13 to 26 (2 weeks) due to the increasing infection. Was announced by the Malaysian government. There is a possibility of extension, so we will update it again in that case. Areas with low levels of infection will continue to have activity restrictions for recovery until March 31st.
The state of Kota Kinabalu today seems to be that the market and supermarkets are crowded due to shopping before the cage, and traffic jams are occurring for people returning to their parents' homes.

In Sabah, where Kota Kinabalu is located, there was a movement of people in the election held at the end of September, and due to the third wave of corona infection, the Conditional Activity Restriction Ordinance (CMCO) will be issued from early October until November 9. It has been announced.
The restaurant is open for take-out only, and schools, public beaches and parks are also closed.
Up to 2 people can travel by car, and although the minimum required shopping is allowed, a mask is required and a strict SOP is laid. The city is quiet, with many offices closed.
The number of new cases in Sabah yesterday, November 2, was 503, of which 149 were infected in Kota Kinabalu, followed by 138 in Tawau on the east coast.
It is said that the government will announce the response after the 9th this weekend, but it seems difficult to cancel it in Sabah, where the number of infected people has not decreased.
All the staff are working hard to prepare for the delivery of online tours, etc., as soon as this third wave subsides. We will update it as soon as the government announces it.
Beautiful sunset Kota Kinabalu 🌞
We pray that the new coronavirus infection will end as soon as possible and that the day will come when you can see this beautiful sunset live.
