Malaysian Prince Muhyiddin is currently working in home isolation. On October 6, when he was giving a live speech, people found that he did not wear a uniform isolation bracelet.
This incident once again caused controversy among the people of Ma Guo to hold "double standards" about the government.
The Prime Minister's Office clarified that the Ministry of Health did not require the Prime Minister to wear an isolation bracelet.
The Prime Minister's Office issued a statement on October 7 saying that according to the risk assessment conducted by the Ministry of Health on October 5, the Prime Minister was advised to be quarantined at home and must use the "MySejahtera" mobile app to supervise his health at home for up to 14 days every day.
statement said that the Ministry of Health did not require the Prime Minister to wear a bracelet, "Therefore, it is incorrect to accuse the Prime Minister of violating the Ministry of Health's instructions."
Mandatory requirements for wearing an isolation bracelet
According to Malaysia's epidemic prevention requirements, people who are forced to quarantine at home must wear an isolation bracelet and download mobile applications to track whereabouts.
Individuals wearing isolation bracelets cannot leave their homes until the end of the 14-day quarantine period, except for the head of the family. The isolation bracelet contains the location and date of the inspection. After the quarantine period expires, he will be tested on the 13th day. If the test result is negative, the bracelet will be cut off and removed by the county health department and released from isolation.
Malaysia's senior minister of Defense Ismail Sabiri, who is in charge of anti-epidemic work, once said that it is illegal to take off the isolation bracelet without authorization.
Malaysian Ministry of Health also reminds the public that if people wearing isolation bracelets are found to appear in public places, they can report them to the police.
In the past few months, people who violated the quarantine regulations and were wearing quarantine bracelets and ran out around, were discovered and reported by people with sharp eyes.
Many people have been fined.
Previously, a minister violated the quarantine regulations and was caught by netizens.
The story is like this: Malaysian Minister of Planting and Origin Mohammad Khairudin returned to Malaysia from Turkey on July 7. The virus test result was negative on the same day. Later, the second and third test results were also negative. However, he did not quarantine for 14 days as required and also attended the parliamentary meeting.
htmlOn August 7, the Ministry of Health issued a ticket of RM1,000 to him. He has paid the fine.
Kerudin later apologized to the people and announced that he would donate four months of ministerial salary.
"Kerudin incident" continues to ferment
After the "Kerudin incident" occurred, the Malaysian police received 27 reports on the matter.
Malaysian police cited the "Infectious Disease Prevention and Control Act 1988 (342 Act) " to investigate the Kairudin case.

On August 27, Kyrudin was summoned by the police to Bukit Aman, but he did not have any quarantine after returning to China and admitted his confession.
In addition to Khairudin, the police also summoned several other witnesses to admit confessions.
Under this law, citizens or foreigners entering Malaysia from overseas must undergo 14 days of self-isolation to curb the spread of the virus. First offenders will receive a fine of up to RM1,000 from the Director of the Ministry of Health, imprisonment for up to two years or receive a fine, or both (if charged by law enforcement authorities) .
Islamic Party: Khairudin brings benefits
should be regarded as a "hero"
Malaysian Prime Minister Muhyiddin once said in September that the Khairudin case will be handed over to the police for investigation, and emphasized that no one can surpass the law, and Khairudin, as the leader of the Islamic Party, is no exception.
On the other hand, Islamic Party spiritual leader Hashin Yexin defended Khairudin, saying that Khairudin brought more benefits to the Malaysian palm oil industry after traveling in Turkey, so even if he violated the quarantine order, he should be regarded as a "hero".
Senior Member: Have we returned to medieval Europe?
Mass senior MP, who claims to be the "father of Malaysia's democratic reform", Democratic Action Party Lin Jixiang wrote an article in the party's party newspaper "Rocket" on September 14. He asked: "Kerudin violated the standard operating procedures of isolation more than two months ago. He and his family returned from Turkey on July 7, while Shibuda District MP Guo Suqin revealed this incident in the parliament on August 18. Why does the authorities unusually take so long to complete the investigation?"

Lim Kit-sing also said: "On August 19, the Minister of Health had indicated that they were investigating the allegations of Khairudin's violation of the quarantine order. Three days later, the Ministry of Health issued a statement on August 22, but said that a fine of RM1,000 was issued to Khairudin on August 7."
Lim Kit-sing pointed out that there are no answers to "whether the fine is filled in the date" and "what exactly Khairudin paid a fine of RM1,000".
He said that although Khairudin later apologized and promised to donate the minister's salary, he insisted that he did not make any mistakes in his position, and that all he made were mistakes involving standard operating procedures. Therefore, Lin Jixiang believes that whether Kyrudin apologizes sincerely is a question, and he also believes that "such remarks reveal that Kyrudin is not competent for the position of minister."
He said, "Kerudin reminded me of medieval Europe. At that time, people could pay money in the form of 'indulgences' to get rid of sins and even avoid going to hell. Have we returned to the medieval era in Europe?"
Lin Jixiang believed that Kerudin had attended several Congress meetings when he violated the procedures. Therefore, he should be handed over to the Privileged Committee of the House of Commons.
Former Prime Minister Najib : Khairudin should be raised
On October 7, former Malaysian Prime Minister Najib posted on Facebook that due to the dissatisfaction of the people, the government should officially raise custody of Khairudin.
Nagi pointed out that the reason why this storm has continued to this day is because the Ministry of Health or the Immigration Bureau did not punish Khairudin.
He said that the court should be allowed to decide whether Kyrudin is guilty and if he loses the case, he can also appeal to the court.
Police: Waiting for instructions from the Attorney General's Attorney General
On the same day, Mior Faridalathrash Wahid, deputy director of the Criminal Crime Investigation Department of Bukit Aman confirmed that the police have completed the investigation into the Khairudin case and submitted the relevant report to the Attorney General on October 1. Currently, we are waiting for the Attorney General's Office to direct whether to take the next step.
