SUPP Women chief urges Agong to extend Sarawak Legislative Assembly's term until Covid-19 under control

KUCHING, July 3 ― Sarawak United People’s Party Women chief Kho Teck Wan has urged the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to grant a special extension to the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly so that the 12th state election can be held at a later date.

“Not just politicians but all strata of our society in Sarawak should focus on saving lives, getting vaccinated and reviving the economy instead of an election,” she said in a statement yesterday. She feared that election campaign without strict compliant with the standard operating procedures could lead to the emergence of a new pandemic cluster.
