FITNESS centres offering zumba and spinning classes can group male and female clients in the same class as long as they comply with the new Beauty and Health Establishment Order 2016, said a senior government official.
Deputy Permanent Secretary of Home Affairs Hj Mohd Sunadi Hj Buntar said such fitness sessions are mostly conducted in an environment where participants are easily seen, making it unlikely for them to engage in suspicious activities.
This, he said, is different from the case of barbershops and massage parlours.
