“The EMCO at Rumah Likik, Rumah Empeni Budom, Rumah Nyuka Lubuk Lemba, Rumah Lai Strait and Rumah Takang Uatau takes place between April 26 and May 9.

“Meanwhile, the EMCO at Rumah Giman and Rumah Kiam Ujai takes place between April 27 and May 10 while the EMCO at SMK Ulu Balingian is from April 28 until May 11,” SDMC said in a statement today.

The committee also announced the extension of the EMCO at Rumah Bajak in Julau from April 28 to May 4.

SDMC said it would lift the EMCO at Mukah Polytechnic tomorrow.

“The decision was made as the second screening results did not find any new positive cases. In addition, there is no evidence that the infection is still contagious in the area.

“SDMC would like to take this opportunity to thank all agencies and villagers for their cooperation in making this EMCO a success,” it added.
