KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 9 — The National Security Council (NSC) today has decided to allow some professional sports training as well as certain sectors in the creative industry to recommence nationwide so long as tighter standard operating procedures (SOP) under the movement control order (MCO) are observed.

Senior Minister Datuk Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced that several segments of the creative industry may resume tomorrow, while centralised training for football, hockey and sepak takraw league competition squads begins on February 15.

“After conducting risk assessments with various agencies in the MCO Technical Committee, the government has agreed to allow the creative industry sector to operate with strict SOP compliance,” he said during a press briefing.
