My Unit Trust Investment as of 8th May 2020

So what happened last week ending 8th May 2020?

States Do Not Agree To conditional MCO

After the announcement of the federal government to conditional movement control order (MCO), a few state government decide that I will not follow it because of safety concern and are not ready to resume activities. They require more time to prepare.

There are a few mixed responses from the public. Mostly felt it’s too soon to resume activities citing COVID-19 cases spiked in Hokkaido, Japan when they lift the lockdown. But compared to us Malaysia, we did not open our borders, they did. Though there are a few case spikes, still it’s lower than the early days of MCO.

On the other hand, I’ve seen a few businesses have to close down due to this pandemic. A most notable one was the closure of Hard Rock Cafe Kota Kinabalu. If a big establishment has to close down, what would happen to the small business owner? I won’t pick sides. As long as people follow the SOP, I think everything would be fine. But do people follow SOP? I have my doubt. It’s already early of the week and I’m seeing a few images of people not following the SOP.

Full Flower Moon of 2020

I manage to catch the last supermoon for the year 2020. After a while, it sure looked boring taking pictures of the same thing. So I think I’ll try to take composition. The last photo is my first attempt. I need to practice more.
