PETALING JAYA: The Covid-19 pandemic requires extraordinary measures to curb the spread of the pandemic, says Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang (pic).

Backing the proclamation of a state of emergency, the PAS president said that it was a proactive measure taken by the Perikatan Nasional government to deal with such an unprecedented situation, involving challenges from within and outside, especially in terms of illegal entry of foreigners, which he said was difficult to curb with normal laws.
