An old man was sitting on his front porch watching the sun rise. He sees the neighbor's kid walk by carrying something big under his arm
He yells out "Hey boy, whatcha got there?" Boy yells back "Roll of chicken wire." Old man says "What you gonna do with that?" Boy says "Gonna catch some chickens." Old man yells "You damn fool, you can't catch chickens with chicken wire!" Boy just laughs and keeps walking. That evening at sunset the boy comes walking by and to the old man's surprise he is dragging behind him the chicken wire with about 30 chickens caught in it. Same time next morning the old man is out watching the sun rise and he sees the boy walk by carrying something kind of round in his hand. Old man yells out "Hey boy, whatcha got there?" Boy yells back "Roll of duck tape." Old man says "What you gonna do with that?" Boy says back "Gonna catch me some ducks." Old man yells back, "You damn fool, you can't catch ducks with duck tape!" Boy just laughs and keeps walking. That night around sunset the boy walks by coming home and to the old man's amazement he is trailing behind him the unrolled roll of duck tape with about 35 ducks caught in it. Same time next morning the old man sees the boy walking by carrying what looks like a long reed with something fuzzy on the end. Old man says "Hey boy, whatcha got there?" Boy says "It's a pussy willow." Old man says "Wait up ... I'll get my hat."

Yes. The government here invoked what they call a Movement Control Order. Only essential business are allowed to be open. Essential is clinics, hospitals, grocery stores and restaurants are to only do takeout. You will be arrested if gathering in any group or away from your home more than 10 km. No more than two people in any car. This is just a few of the things. This order currently lasts until April 15th but on the 10th they will let us know if it will extend.
Also any Malaysian citizens (no foreigners allowed) that decide to fly in from other countries gets an all expense paid quarantine for 14 days at a government facility.
The grocery store near my apartment allows no more than 50 people at a time. You stand in a line socially distancing until a person leave. A store employee performs a thermal scan on you and if no fever you are required to wash your hands prior to entering the store.
They are much more serious about this situation than what I am hearing from home.
