Melaka Polls: Think of the risks involved and the people if SOP not followed, Dr Wee tells Opposition

PETALING JAYA: Do not be selfish politicians, says Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong (pic) to the Opposition in a post on Instagram.

Dr Wee, who is currently under home quarantine after returning from the United Kingdom, posted a photo on Instagram with captions responding to some Opposition politicians who were against the ban on political assembly for the upcoming Melaka state election.

"Mind therapy, looking at my favourite pet fish. Suddenly it crossed my mind, why did the Opposition attack KJ repeatedly?" he wrote in the caption on Tuesday (Oct 26).

"Think of the bad scenario that would happen if there is no compliance with the standard operating procedures (SOP) as people are allowed to have (political) assembly and campaign without considering the people’s lives or deaths.

"Do not be a selfish politician," the Ayer Hitam MP added.

On Sunday (Oct 24), Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin said a ban was placed on all political gatherings in Melaka from Monday (Oct 25) to Nov 27 to avoid the risk of transmission of Covid-19.
