Former minister Rafidah Aziz said leaving businesses in the dark with last-minute announcements will only prolong their struggles.Leaving businesses in the dark until the last minute will only prolong their struggles, former international trade and industry minister Rafidah Aziz said.

This came in response to Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s announcement this morning that the “total lockdown” phase of the National Recovery Plan would be extended indefinitely until Putrajaya’s daily case and vaccination targets are met.In a statement, Rafidah said such an announcement should not come “at the last hour” as many would have already anticipated and prepared for reopening and easing of restrictions.

“SMEs, sole proprietors and businesses in general would have made plans to make new investments, begin operations with SOPs or even hiring anew.In addition to providing lockdown updates with more notice, Rafidah said many small vendors outside the food industry cannot pivot once forced to close.Rafidah suggested setting aside proper areas for them to operate, segregated by their type of business, such as food, attire, fresh items, home use items and the like, with strict SOPs in place.

“Identify which categories of businesses can be allowed to operate with well-enforced parameters of safety and security.“It is about parallel planning about how to ensure society and the economy can begin to function in an effective manner, with common sense and logical timelines.”
