Initially to run for two weeks until 14 June, but likely longer, the lockdown comes after Malaysia recorded more than 8,000 COVID-19 cases in a single day for the first time late last week.

RWG previously closed for three months in 2020, from 18 March until 19 June, following the initial outbreak of COVID-19 and implementation of a Movement
Control Order by Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin.
It also closed for four weeks from 22 January until 17 February 2021 under Malaysia’s MCO 2.0.
