5 Types Of Face Mask Wearers We See Here In Malaysia
Beginning 1 August, the government has made it mandatory for all Malaysians to wear a face mask when they are out in public.
Despite that, there are still a lot of Malaysians who still do not care about the mandatory face mask rule.
But for the rest of you who've made the face mask a necessary essential, well done! We hope more Malaysians can be like you guys.
So, we've decided to pay tribute to all of you mask wearers by making fun of you categorising you guys into different types of mask wearers.
Here are the five most common types of mask wearers we see going out and about on the streets of Malaysia on a daily basis, and let us know which one you are:
People who do this are...: Afraid of getting a saman
#1 The Law Compliant

They are the model citizen as you'll never see them without a face mask on their face. They make it a point to never leave the house without a mask, and that's commendable. There are also the ones who would constantly remind you to wear a mask, and educate you on how to properly wear one. 10/10 confirm teacher's pet in school last time.
People who do this are...: Probably waiting for a judge to read out their jail sentence
#2 The Nose Breathers

As in, they die-die need their nose to feel the air to breathe because somehow, a face mask would hinder their ability to suck in air. This reminds us of how a fish can't breathe on land. In case you're wondering, don't ever wear your face mask like that, OK? If you do, you're better off not wearing any.
People who do this are...: Not afraid to die
#3 The For-Show-Only

How do you know a person is wearing a face mask just for show? Simple; you see the face mask hanging on one side of their ear, on the chin or on their hand more than on their face. The only time the face mask will go on their face is when an abang security guard stops them from buying boba tea because they're not wearing a face mask. Ugh, annoying.
People who do this are...: Are afraid that they got nothing to flex since they can't go out as much
#4 The Hypebeasts
![Instagram/@daniela16547 Need to flex.](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/80/d6/2f/80d62fef282470a1409efd38c9b231a7.jpg)
Surgical mask and cloth mask cap ayam, what's what? Now that face masks are part of our daily essentials, you can be sure hypebeasts need some streetwear-branded masks to flex too. If there's no branding on the mask, they're not wearing it. Supreme face mask = RM1,000. Flexing with Supreme face mask on Instagram = priceless.
People who do this are...: Trying to tell people they are cooler than the rest
#5 The Overdoers
![Yahoo News A little too much, we feel.](https://d3avoj45mekucs.cloudfront.net/rojakdaily/media/letchumy-tamboo/daily stories/1_419.jpg)
A simple surgical face mask or a reusable mask will do, but no, some people would go all out to give 120 per cent even when it comes to wearing face masks. N95 masks are still acceptable but not very necessary, but a respirator mask? A bit too much, we feel We are trying to prevent the coronavirus from getting into our system, not going to Chernobyl.
