News & Reviews:   Gerak Malaysia

With the on-going Conditional Movement Control Order taking place, Malaysians who are travelling or going back out to their offices are required to have the Gerak Malaysia app on their smartphones for passage. That said, we got a report by the Royal Malaysian Police (PDRM) about the app which oversaw the app being downloaded 1.3 million times. 

As we enter the newly announced Condition Movement Control Order (CMCO) period, it is essential that all Malaysians must already know about the Gerak Malaysia app. Since we are still partially under lockdown, Malaysians must make use of the app in order to move across the state. In line with this, the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) have released the latest FAQs for everyone.

PDRM recently announced that you can apply online for interstate travel using the Gerak Malaysia app during this current MCO period. They’ve also just announced the time table for interstate travel for each state from 1 May 2020 to 3 May 2020. Those looking to travel interstate can apply now until 29 April 2020.

The Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission(MCMC) is now testing a beta app called Gerak Malaysia that can identify every person that may have contacted with an Covid-19 Infectee by using location tracking. This will aid the Ministry of Health (MOH) in contact tracing.
