Here we go again: Following the announcement of the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Putrajaya, people have already started rushing to local supermarkets.

As seen by photos and videos being shared online, there are long queues at various malls and supermarkets – all rushing to stock up on necessities and food. Here are some examples:

1. Jaya Grocer, Glo Damansara

6. Citta Mall

People have already started panic buying at Citta Mall less than 2 hours after the announcement of the government imposing CMCO at Selangor, Kuala Lumpur & Putrajaya. As long as there is no directive for a curfew, the country is at peace.

To quote Twitter user Faizal Hamssin, “No reason for panic buying. No need to be kiasu. For all you know, it’s at the crowded grocer tonight that you may catch Covid-19. We had MCO last time, supermarkets weren’t closed. Hoarding is an indication of greed. You don’t need 20 loaves of bread, or 50 rolls of toilet paper.”
