News & Reviews:   movement control order

As you already noticed, now more people have time to surf online thanks to the Movement Control Order. But because of that, there's also more information than before particularly about COVID-19 and that may make some Facebook users "tired'. So to solve this problem, the company is trying out a new Quiet Mode for people who needs a break on social media.

Bukit Aman Internal Security and Public Order Department director Datuk Seri Acryl Sani Abdullah Sani said the police will begin to issue RM1,000 compound notices to those disobey the Movement Control Order (MCO) and the compound notice would have to be settled within two weeks at any Health Ministry office.

Folks, how are y’all doing during the second phase of MCO? Have you gotten the time to do the things that you didn't get to finish during the normal days? While waiting for another announcement regarding the extension of MCO to happen on 10 April, Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia has announced that all Kuala Lumpur areas that got infected with the Covid-19 are now labelled as red zones.

While the frontliners are continuing their battle against COVID-19, we are also battling against fake news that spreads faster than the virus itself through chain messages in WhatsApp by your naive friends and family. Today, we will put two rumours to an end once and for all, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO) - hot weather will not prevent COVID-19 and being infected does not mean you're destined to die. 

Staying home during the movement control order (MCO) doesn’t sound bad at all with some of the perks offered by different companies during this period. Earlier, we’ve seen the news of Astro providing free channels for every Malaysian, Candy Crush giving out unlimited lives, and the list goes on. Now, Marvel is joining the force (it’s not saving the world) by giving out free access to some of the comics available from its Marvel Unlimited subscription service.

While staying home during the movement control order, online shopping is one of the things we cling to nowadays. With that being said, we are here to announce that Shopee is coming back with another sale that you can’t resist on 4th April! The 4.4 Shopee Brands Festival will be happening on that day with some of the items that you might have been longing for on sale. No matter if it’s a smartphone or a smartwatch that you’re planning to get, you should definitely check out the sale on 4.4!

As we journey through Phase 2 of the Movement Control Order, U Mobile continues to provide their customers with their daily free 1GB Internet data and 2x Hotspot data up to 100GB. This time, the telco went an extra mile of donating a total of 100 new mobile phones equipped with 100 GX68 postpaid SIMs to the University Malaya Medical Centre and Hospital Sungai Buloh frontliners.

We are now in day 15 of the Movement Control Order and gamers everywhere are enjoying themselves. Over the past two weeks, many game publishers have come forward to offer their games with a huge discount or just for free. In Ubisoft's case, they are back once again and offering Rayman Legends for free on their website!

As we enter the extended Movement Control Order tomorrow, it was inevitable that more movies will also have their release dates shifted to a later date. In this latest news, Sony Pictures is the latest movie studio to announce more movie delays. This includes Ghostbusters: Afterlife, Morbius, the untitled third Spider-Man movie with Marvel and many more.  

During this movement control order, one of the essentials to keep you connected to your businesses or studies is a video conferencing tool. However, it must be really hard for you to choose the right one to communicate with your peers while at home, as the video conferencing tools that are currently on the market have their own benefits and drawbacks. Now, it seems like everybody is using Zoom since it’s a popular platform when it comes to video conferencing.
