KUALA LUMPUR (Sept 24): It looks like sports spectators or supporters in areas under Phase Four of the National Recovery Plan (NRP) will have to wait a little longer before they are allowed back into sports and recreational venues.

The Youth and Sports Ministry said in a statement tonight that plans to allow fans to be present at sports venues had been temporarily shelved so that a review of the details regarding the General Protocol for the Management of Spectators/Supporters could be carried out by taking into account current risk evaluation.
