MELAKA: The management of the iconic Jonker Walk here will encourage visitors to the night market to begin wearing face masks from the coming weekend.

Jonker Walk management committee deputy chairman Datuk Wira Gan Tian Loo said the move is part of health safety measures with the anticipated influx of tourists in conjunction with Chinese New Year as well as the arrival of holidaymakers from China.

Gan said visitors to the night market will be encouraged to mask up from this Friday as part of Covid-19 precautionary measures. Earlier, Melaka Chief Minister Datuk Seri Sulaiman Md Ali said the state government was encouraging the public to wear face masks in crowded places to prevent the spread of the coronavirus.
