Visiting is not allowed under the current lockdown SOPs.

Further, Kuala Lumpur is still under Phase 1 of the national recovery plan (NRP). Under this phase, social activities such as gatherings and visiting are not allowed, unless for emergency purposes.

In a now-deleted Twitter post, Annuar said he and his wife visited the former prime minister, better known as Pak Lah, at his residence in Kuala Lumpur.

The Ketereh MP added that they spent two hours together and even had lunch cooked by Pak Lah’s wife, Jeanne Abdullah.

Among others, Twitter users criticised Annuar for allegedly flouting the SOPs and doing things that ordinary Malaysians are barred from doing.

Twitter user @ForABetterMy wrote: “I thought we cannot visit houses? I haven’t seen my family in months. I guess if ministers (can) do that, we can do (it), too.”

Another user @khairzawawi said: “Just resign.”

Aziz@MrFocus said: “It’s okay even if you sleep there. If we visit, we are caught. Damn!”
