Effective 18 March 2020, Malaysia's Movement Control Order (MCO) was issued under the Prevention and Control of Infectious Diseases Act 1988 and the Police Act 1967, closing borders, schools, mosques, and non-essential businesses, and restricting interstate travel. The order was renewed and recalibrated through a sequence of phases (CMCO, RMCO, MCO 2.0/3.0) and was paired with PRIHATIN, PENJANA, and subsequent stimulus packages to absorb the resulting shock to household incomes and SME cash flow.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
