Malaysia has been
badly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, with the Malaysian government taking
measures to flatten the curve, including implementing an extended nationwide
movement control order (MCO) till 14 April. While we’re all doing our part and
observing the MCO, it doesn’t mean that we can’t have fun while we’re at it!
Here are 4 ways local celebrities and institutions alike are keeping busy on
TikTok during the MCO.
If you’re on
TikTok, you’d notice that the #stayathome challenge is trending right now,
encouraging Malaysians to showcase creative ways to keep busy during the MCO.
But what you may NOT know are the star studded names supporting this challenge,
including the likes of singer/songwriter Faizal Tahir, actress Joey Leong
and charismatic entrepreneur Dato' (Dr) Calvin Khiu. Even renowned companies
like Warner
Music Malaysia are joining in the act to do what they can to raise
awareness. So what are you waiting for? Put on your creative hats and show
Malaysia what you’ve been up to!
Leading by example,
governments around the world, including Malaysia are doing all they can to stop
the spread of COVID-19. Following suit, many institutions across various
industries are also playing their part to flatten the curve, as a concerted and
collective effort is required now more than ever. This is why institutions like
the World
Health Organization have teamed up with technology companies like
TikTok to raise awareness about good hand hygiene through the #safehands
challenge, the primary (and easiest) way to stop the spread of the disease. At
the time of writing, #safehands challenge has garnered over 2.4 billion views,
with local and global celebrities alike participating for a greater cause.
