KUALA LUMPUR: A group of Kuala Lumpur MPs is urging Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to reconsider the closure of its public parks and playgrounds. The MPs said that DBKL's decision was not in line with the recent announcement by Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin that "isolation for a long period of time can affect mental health. To avoid this, the public is allowed to leave the house for exercise but only with members of their household." "For KL residents, public parks are the most suitable, controlled and safe location to carry out recreational activities in accordance with all standard operating procedures (SOP) of the National Security Council (NSC).
