The classic Universal monster gets a gory reboot bogged down by a rather heavy-going seriousness.

KUALA LUMPUR: A four-day road ban on goods vehicles will be enforced in conjunction with the Chinese New Year celebration to alleviate traffic congestion and minimise the risk of accidents.

The Transport Ministry, in a statement, said the ban will be in effect on Jan 27 and 28 and Feb 1 and 2 . It said the ban was introduced due to the expected increase in private vehicle traffic, as many would return to their respective hometowns for the celebration. "In addition, the National Speed Limit Reduction Order will be enforced from Jan 28 to Feb 2 as part of the Royal Malaysia Police’s Ops Selamat operation,” the statement read.

According to the ministry, the Road Transport Department would heighten enforcement efforts nationwide through the Chinese New Year 2025 operation and integrate operations with other enforcement agencies to ensure compliance with the ban.Thousands displaced after non-stop rain in Sabah’s interior areasMCMC, Microsft discussing LinkedIn licensing, says Fahmi
