The government’s decision to extend the Movement Control Order (MCO) from 31 March until 14 April is considered the best step taken to fight the spread of the Covid-19 outbreak across the country.
During this period, Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) has postponed all service operations, and no teaching and learning (T&L) activities including online are allowed during the MCO from 18 March until 14 April 2020.
As an appreciation to the frontliners who have been working tirelessly around the clock to fight the Covid-19 outbreak, the UMP Alumni Association (Alumni UMP) contributed hand sanitisers to UMP Security Division and Kuantan District Health Office on 3 April 2020.
According to the Vice-President of Alumni UMP, Mohd Najib Razali, the contribution was one of the social responsibility initiatives to the community during the Covid-19 outbreak by focusing on the frontliners who are working hard to break the virus chain.
As an effort to assist the frontliners to curb the spread of the Covid-19 outbreak, Universiti Malaysia Pahang (UMP) contributed 600 bottles of hand sanitisers: triUMPH (1 L) and hand-carry Germs Free Hand Sanitizer (30 mL).
