KUALA LUMPUR: The decision to implement Covid-19 Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) by the book for the 15th Melaka state election was not an attempt to jeopardise or weaken Umno, says Khairy Jamaluddin.
The Health Minister stressed that the decision was made to protect the people, the election machinery and the leadership of all parties involved from being infected with Covid-19, besides avoiding a sharp increase in positive cases of the disease as happened after the Sabah state election last year.
