Movement Control and Migration in Sabah in the Time of COVID-19
ISSUE: 2020 No. 135 ISSN 2335-6677 RESEARCHERS AT ISEAS – YUSOF ISHAK INSTITUTE ANALYSE CURRENT EVENTS Singapore | 27 November 2020 Movement Control and Migration in Sabah in the Time of COVID-19 Andrew M. Carruthers* EXECUTIVE SUMMARY • After a tumultuous state election, Sabah is now the epicenter of an ongoing “Third Wave” of COVID-19 infections that has swept across Malaysia. • Election campaigning and clandestine cross-border movement have been causally linked by different government actors to this Third Wave, prompting the government to tighten movement control orders and migrant surveillance in Sabah. • As a recent report by the Sovereign Migrant Workers Coalition makes clear, migrant detention practices must be reformulated in response to evolving administrative, epidemiological, and ethical challenges. • Policymakers must grasp that (i) movement control, (ii) migrant care, and (iii) public health are interconnected. * Guest writer, Andrew M. Carruthers, is Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Pennsylvania, and a former Associate and Visiting Fellow at the ISEAS –Yusuf Ishak Institute. 1 ISSUE: 2020 No. 135 ISSN 2335-6677 INTRODUCTION On 25 October 2020, Malaysian King Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah declined to declare a National Emergency, despite Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin’s urging that such an emergency was necessary in the face of an intensifying “Third Wave” of COVID-19 transmission.

PM Malaysiakini.Com Jul 9, 2008 Finance Minister Abdullah Ahmad
GLCs need not be led by Umno members: PM Malaysiakini.com Jul 9, 2008 Finance Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said government-linked companies (GLC) such as the Sepang International Circuit need not be helmed by Umno members. MCPX “The choice of chairperson for a GLC is based on the person’s ability, qualifications, experience, character and deep-knowledge in a sector or industry in which the company operates and is not based on the political views,” said Abdullah, who is also prime minister, in his written reply to Wee Choo Keong (PKR-Wangsa Maju). “This is to ensure that the chairperson appointed is qualified and able to lead the board of directors of the said GLC in the interests of all parties as well as to ensure the effective management of the company,” he added. Though Abdullah’s statement did not name any individuals, it was an obvious reference to Sepang International Circuit chairperson Mokhzani Mahathir. The Sepang International Circuit is organiser of the prestigious Formula 1 race. Calls for Mokhzani to quit Following Mokhzani’s decision to quit Umno, of which he had served as treasurer in Kedah, Tourism Minister Azalina Othman Said and Youth and Sports Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob had called for Mokhzani to resign. “Mokhzani should know that SIC is a government entity and he should resign in the interest of the sport,” Azalina, who is also an Umno supreme council member, was reported as saying early last month. “His continued presence is going to hamper the sport because the government's support will have to be reviewed,” she added.

New Cabinet Appointments Won't Rock the Boat, As Long As People's Health, Economy Under Control KUALA LUMPUR, July 9
New cabinet appointments won’t rock the boat, as long as people’s health, economy under control KUALA LUMPUR, July 9 -- With new cabinet appointments, the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government looks totally committed to bringing the COVID-19 pandemic under control while ensuring the economy forges ahead despite hiccups and fragilities of the global economy, Juwai IQI chief economist Shan Saeed said. He said Malaysian exports and trade numbers are still strong. “The new appointments will follow the same economic strategy to speed up the vaccine process and to encourage more and more people get vaccinated. “In my view, with current speed and arrival of 12 million vaccines in July, we can expect 60-80 per cent of the population completing their doses by end-September, and this would be remarkable taking into account that many countries are suffering including Australia, Japan, Vietnam, and India,” he told Bernama. Malaysia’s total trade in May 2021 expanded by 48.7 per cent year-on-year to RM170.9 billion as the country’s exports and imports maintained strong double-digit growth, according to the Department of Statistics Malaysia. Exports, imports and total trade posted a growth of 47.3 per cent, 50.3 per cent, and 48.7 per cent, respectively. Malaysia, according to Shan, still performs a good job in maintaining macroeconomic stability despite facing various challenges, with Juwai IQI maintaining the country's 2021 gross domestic product growth at between three and four per cent, budget deficit at six to seven per cent, while the ringgit is expected to hover at between 3.67 and 4.10 per US dollar.
