ALOR SETAR - High-risk camping and holiday areas in Kedah have been advised to be temporarily closed throughout this monsoon season to prevent any untoward incident.

"I will present this proposal paper at the exco meeting, and a press conference will be held after that," he said in a statement today.

Meanwhile, Mohd Firdaus also advised the public to choose a low-risk holiday destination for the time being. - BERNAMA
