Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has impulsively posed new challenges to many
businesses and companies around the globe due to travel and business
restrictions. COVID-19 which has been declared a pandemic by the World
Health Organization (WHO) on the 11th of March 2020, which originated from
Wuhan City, the People’s Republic of China has consequently crashed the
downtime of the economy in Malaysia and caused a significant impact on the
Small-to-Medium Enterprises (SMEs) business operation. The present study
employs a mixed methodology, which includes an analysis of primary and
secondary legal sources, and a questionnaires survey. The aim of this research
is to identify the legal impacts on SMEs due to the COVID-19 pandemic
influences on a business operation which will further assist policymakers to
develop actionable policies and support the growth of SMEs in Malaysia. The
government should be transparent in disseminating the post-COVID-19 data
because it can be a thrust for the SMEs in planning their future agenda to
“bounce back” the economic sectors effectively.
