The recent elections in Sabah led to a surge in Covid-19 cases, especially in the state.

His comments come amid reports that the 12th Sarawak state election, which must take place by June next year, is expected to be held soon, while the Batu Sapi by-election in Sabah is scheduled to take place on Dec 5. “We have learned this from Sabah.
