In its latest move to curb the Covid-19 pandemic, the government has released the Hotspots Identification for Dynamic Engagement (HIDE), listing out premises at risk of becoming viral clusters. Malls, F&B businesses and bazaars are among the highest in this list and are facing challenges as a result. First, we speak with the Malaysia Shopping Malls Association to hear what their experience has been. We then focus on how data can be used to combat the pandemic effectively.
