‘Merdeka Booster’ aims to lift spirits of frontliners


SERDANG: “Be strong and take care of yourself. We love you.” Those were among the words of encouragement written on a card given to frontliners at the Covid-19 Integrated Quarantine and Treatment Centre (PKRC) 2.0 at Malaysia Agro Expo Park Serdang (MAEPS) in conjunction with this year’s National Month celebration.

Copies of the card, along with a pill-shaped pen, were tied to the door handle of vehicles or side mirrors of motorcycles belonging to frontliners selected at random.
