COVID-19
 
Since the declaration of the COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020, by the World Health Organization or WHO, Malaysia has been put through various stages of lockdowns such as (1) full movement control orders (“MCO”), under which, quarantines, travel restrictions, and the temporary closure of stores and facilities in Malaysia were made mandatory, (2) MCO were eased to a Conditional Movement Control Order (“CMCO”) where most business sectors were allowed to operate under strict rules and Standard Operating Procedures mandated by the government of Malaysia and (3) CMCO were further relaxed to Recovery Movement Control Order (“RMCO”). On January 12, 2021, due to a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, the Malaysian government declared a state of emergency nationwide to combat COVID-19. Intermittent lockdowns were imposed in various states and districts in the country. February 2021 marked a significant month for Malaysia as all frontline staff of the country, which comprised those in healthcare, police, the Volunteers Department of Malaysia, the Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia and civil defense sectors were vaccinated. On February 16, 2021, Prime Minister, Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin announced that a National COVID-19 Immunization Plan will be implemented for one year after February 2021, which 80% of the Malaysia population will be vaccinated to achieve herd immunization. On March 5, 2021, lockdowns in most part of the country was eased to a CMCO, nevertheless, COVID-19 cases in the country continue to rise. On May 12, 2021, Malaysia was again put under a full lockdown nationwide, until the earlier of (i) daily COVID-19 cases infection of the country fall below 4,000; (ii) intensive Unit Care, or ICU, wards start operating at a moderate level; or (iii) 10% of the Malaysian population is fully vaccinated. The country was administering over 400,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines daily. On July 17, 2021, the full lockdown was slightly eased as 13.9% of the Malaysian population was fully vaccinated, with another 30% having received at least one dose of the vaccine. The COVID-19 situation in the country showed no sign of abating. Kuala Lumpur and Selangor remained the epicenter of the latest wave of infections. Total COVID-19 cases in the country surpassed the one million mark on July 25, 2021, and daily cases hit a record high of 24,599 on August 26, 2021. Despite the deteriorating COVID-19 state, the government lifted Kuala Lumpur from Enhanced Movement Control Order (“EMCO”) ahead of schedule and ended the nationwide state of emergency on August 1, 2021. Parliament met for the first time this year on July 26, 2021. Malaysia pressed on with its National COVID-19 Immunization Plan, fast inoculating its residents. COVID-19 infection started to drop below the 10,000 mark daily, beginning October 3, 2021. Effective October 11, 2021, interstate and international travel restrictions were lifted for residents who had been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 as the country achieved its target of inoculating 90% of its adult population. The government is preparing to shift into an endemic COVID-19 phase where it will not impose wide lockdowns even if cases rise. As of October 23, 2022, over 85% of the country’s population have been fully vaccinated

Substantially all of the Company’s revenues are concentrated in Malaysia. Consequently, the Company’s results of operations will likely be adversely, and may be materially, affected, to the extent that the COVID-19 or any other epidemic harms the Malaysia and global economy in general. Any potential impact to the results will depend on, to a large extent, future developments and new information that may emerge regarding the duration and severity of the COVID-19 and the actions taken by government authorities and other entities to contain the COVID-19 or treat its impact, almost all of which are beyond the Company’s control. Potential impacts include, but are not limited to, the following:
 
-
temporary closure of offices, travel restrictions, financial impact of the Company’s customers may be negatively affected, and could continue to negatively affect the demand for the Company’s product;
 
-
the Company may have to provide significant sales incentives to its customers during the outbreak, which may in turn materially adversely affect its financial condition and operating results; and
 
-
the Company may experience a slow-down in hiring new personnel which may adversely impact on the Company’s business operation.
 
Because of the uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 outbreak, the financial impact related to the outbreak of and response to the COVID-19 cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
