He added that the army has also been roped in to ensure tight security at all competition venues such as KLCC, Bukit Jalil, Nilai and MITEC.
“The police will be on a 24-hour watch in the city. To fans and spectators, please use the public transport to go to the respective competition venues.
“There are designated LRT and MRT stations along the Bukit Jalil Sports Complex route. It will be better and easier to commute on the LRT and MRT instead of driving there and parking bays are limited,” added YB Brig Gen Khairy./. (kualalumpur2017.com)
