ISKANDAR PUTERI: The government will not cancel the Malaysian Games (Sukma), to be held in Johor, which has already been pushed to 2021 due to Covid-19, says Datuk Seri Reezal Merican Naina Merican.

The Youth and Sports Minister said there were some quarters that called for Sukma to be postponed or cancelled, but the government does not want to send a wrong signal to the sporting community and sponsors.
