KUALA LUMPUR (Bernama): The strict standard operating procedures (SOP) which await political parties contesting in the Melaka state election will lead to different campaign methods being adopted, and at the same time boost the use of all media platforms.

Although the Election Commission (EC) has yet to issue the full list of SOPs, the recent announcement by Health Minister Khairy Jamaluddin on the ban of election-related gatherings or social activities has triggered dissatisfaction among political parties who want their views to be taken into consideration.
