Barisan: Our event followed SOP, but as a law-abiding party, we will pay fine


PETALING JAYA: Barisan Nasional's recent election machinery launch at the World Trade Centre (WTC) in Kuala Lumpur was held in adherence with Covid-19 standard operating procedures (SOPs) but the RM10,000 compound will be paid, says Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abd Kadir (pic).

The Umno secretary-general explained that the election machinery launch was supposed to have taken place in Melaka, but it was moved to the WTC as the Health Ministry had advised against organising mass gatherings in the state.
