According to him, they are allowed to cross the state provided if they get permission from the police.
“On the advice of the Ministry of Health Malaysia, the government has agreed to allow couples who are far apart due to working across the state to meet with their families provided they have the permission and approval of the Royal Malaysian Police,” he said.
