Sarawak Polls: Physical ceramah allowed in 64 state seats with poor Internet coverage, says EC


KUCHING: Physical campaigning for the Sarawak state election will be allowed in 64 state seats that have been identified with having poor 4G Internet coverage, says the Election Commission (EC).

However, physical talks (ceramah) will be held under strict standard operating procedures (SOPs) to curb Covid-19, which includes requiring all attendees to be fully vaccinated and to undergo RTK antigen self-test prior to the event.
