PETALING JAYA: Feedback from religious associations for the annual Chingay festival will be tabled in the upcoming Covid-19 pandemic management quartet committee, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

The MCA president said this following an engagement session on Sunday that was attended by National Unity Minister Datuk Halimah Mohamed Sadique, Johor Baru Tiong Hua Federation and five Tiong Hua associations in Johor Baru.

“Input was tabled on methods to prevent Covid-19 during the Chingay festival last year and also a guarantee to abide by SOP on parades this year. On Dec 7 last year, Halimah told the Dewan Rakyat that the government had decided to allow Thaipusam celebrations to be held on Jan 18 to go on but without the silver chariot procession.Meanwhile, Dr Wee said during the engagement session, Halimah explained the SOP for Chinese New Year celebrations in detail, which includes SOP for non-Muslim religious places of worship.

At the same time, Dr Wee said he and Halimah visited the Johor Ancient Temple, which hosts the Chingay festival annually.
