GEORGE TOWN: While most vaccine recipients take selfies at vaccination centres (PPV) to commemorate their jabs, those at the Setia SPICE Convention Centre in Bayan Lepas were able to get their caricatures drawn.

At the Vaccine ‘Carry’ Carture Corner in the centre, three caricaturists – Ahmad Shakirin Mohd Zain, 52, Azmi Hussin, 37, and Syed Mohammad Mikhail Al Bokhari Syed Yusof Al Bokhari, 25 – would draw portraits of vaccine recipients upon request, for a fee ranging from RM10 to RM30.
