House visits and family reunion dinners will be allowed during CNY this year, the National Unity Ministry said on Wednesday (Jan 13).
"No open houses can be held. Chinese New Year receptions can be held, but by invitation only," National Unity Minister Halimah Mohamed Sadique told a news conference. Open houses often involve a constant stream of visitors, including the public, while house visits are closed-door and for invited guests only.
Under movement curbs last year, reunion dinners were limited to 15 people within a 10km radius. This year, house visits will be allowed throughout CNY celebrations between January 31 and February 15, and there are no travel restrictions.
Datuk Halimah did not state the maximum number of attendees for reunion dinners, but said that immediate family members and close relatives were usually at such gatherings.
Celebrations on Chap Goh Meh, or the 15th day of CNY, will be allowed at non-Muslim houses of worship, and lion and dragon dances can be performed.
