They say existing laws are sufficient to combat Covid-19.

Pakatan Harapan lawmakers have opposed declaring a state of emergency over the country, deeming it unnecessary as existing laws were said to be sufficient to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic.

Earlier today, a minister told Malaysiakini on condition of anonymity that the Cabinet had made the decision this morning and that Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin would be making an announcement on the emergency soon.

State of emergency is for nation's security threats not for political unrest

Babi punya PH. Tunggulah sampai Covid go away. Pantat kau lah

Election during covid? Genius

Pi melingkuplah PAN DAP....

ARE LIKE THAT STUPID? ELECTION DURING COVID SEASON? now 800+ new cases a day, YOU WANT 800+ DEADTH A DAY ISSIT Think before you talk!!

Pakatan Harapan is being outschemed. Hence, the screaming.

Is the opposition trying to provide a good excuse for an emergency? Avoiding elections is good! Have you seen the Covid numbers after the Sabah elections?

hanya memikirkan kuasa; bukan nak rakyat sejahtera; patut puak ni duk lagi depan dari frontliner..

Who would’ve thought this government would be this bad? Sad thing is it’s not the people’s fault

Avoiding election is a good thing now. Kudos.

Politicians used religion, race and now..virus to gain leverage. So desperate ka

Yes. Let's have election !! During Covid. Clever.

You want election now?
