MCO Day 24 ~ 10 April 2020

And so today the whole of Malaysia waited with bated breath for the PM to announce his decision on the continuity of the MCO / partial lockdown. In a survey conducted by the Star papers recently, most Malaysians want an extension of the MCO so that the number of cases would go down further until there are no more new cases. If the MCO is lifted, all hell will break lose again and no one wants all our hard work, sacrifice and effort the past 3 weeks to go down the drain. Even hubs whose income is impacted unselfishly wants the MCO extended for the benefit of our country.  We are aware that having the restriction lifted too quickly can lead to deadly resurgence of Covid-19. This is something that everyone in our country must work together to prevent.

I am sure everyone already knew what the PM would say even before his speech at 4 p.m.. Yes, there's an extension of another 2 weeks, ending 28 April 2020. The school session would be delayed further even when the MCO is lifted as many parents are worried of letting their children go to school. Home based learning / online study will be further enhanced and we are all waiting for the Government to announce the next course of action for teachers and school children.

So, bring it one! Another 18 days to go! We can all do this because we are all resilient.

Will this be the final phase of the MCO?  Only God knows and we pray that it will be the final, period.

Our lunch of fried organic beetroot meehoon with MIL's homegrown mung bean sprouts, cabbage, eggs, fried fish cakes, eggs and pork slices.



Dinner of steamed rainbow trout, arrowroot + carrot + red dates soup, sauteed pork with Bombay onions, stir-fried celery + bok choy + mushrooms + red bell pepper + fish cake and blanched lady's fingers.


We've been having arrowroot soup for 4 or 5 meals already because hubby's vegetables supplier sent a big bag of it to us 2 weeks ago! 😂

Hey Chris, growing mung bean sprouts is one of the lockdown activities that people all over the world are currently doing, my mum inclusive. My mum's sprouts are stout, fat and juicy. As it's my mil's first try growing bean sprouts, ours are long and thin. They look like alfalfa sprouts that I used to buy from the supermarket lol! These microgreens are nutrient densed.
You stay well and healthy too, Chris. Take care :)
