Movement Control Order (MCO)

On-March 18, 2020, the government of Malaysia was doing a Movement Control Order (MCO) because of the coronavirus Pandemic (COVID-19) outbreak throughout all-state in Malaysia. The goal for MCO is to isolate the sources of the coronavirus pandemic. People prohibited from movement and mass assembly including all religious, sports, social and cultural activities. Even though we had a very long MCO there are a lot of activities that we can do during the Movement Control Order.

Firstly, people can watch movies and dramas on Netflix or other sources during this MCO. From these activities, people might be able to release stress and have some break while enjoying the movies. There are a lot of recommended movies and dramas on Korean, English or Malay movies and dramas such as Avengers, Fight for my way and more. There are several genres of movies and dramas which are historical, romance, horror and comedy.

Next, we can use all the time we have to clean or redecorating our house during the MCO. By cleaning or decorating our house, we can show our inner creativity that has been hidden from our for ages and also improve our creativity. Cleaning can also create bonding between family and friends. The examples that we can do are decorate rooms, cleaning the porch or also gardening.

Other than that, staying at home for a long time will cause us to crave a variety of foods. At the same time, we cannot go out too much as the MCO is in place. So, all we can do during MCO is to learn how to cook the food at home and try new recipes whether it's easy or difficult. This activity can make us good at cooking and can increase our cooking skills. We also can challenge ourselves to make our favorite side dishes or baking cakes and cookies by ourselves. It is a fun activity to do with our family at home during the MCO.

These days, technology allows us to play games with people around the world, so why don't we play online games with our friends during the MCO? Depending on how tech-savvy you are, you can set up your computer or mobile phone so that you can see or hear each other while playing the game. The most played mobile games in Malaysia right now are Plato, House Party, Mobile Pubg and Mobile Legend.

Besides that, other activities that we can also do during the MCO are exercises. The most common exercises that we can do without equipment are push up, plank, and squat. Yoga or Tai chi also exercises that we can do during MCO. These exercises can provide significant flexibility and balance training benefits. Choose an activity that you enjoy to help you stay more motivated.

DONT TRY THIS AT HOME !! STAY SAFE

So these are all the activities that you can do during the Movement Control Order. Please stay at home! And obey all the rules so that we can control the spread of Coronavirus. xoxo
