THE Malaysian Bar welcomes and hails the wise move of His Majesty the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to protect the interest of the rakyat by not declaring a state of emergency. The decision by His Majesty was made after a meeting with the Malay Rulers at Istana Negara on Oct 25.
We echo the views of His Majesty and the Malay Rulers that there are already current laws and mechanisms that have wide-ranging and comprehensive powers to manage the Covid-19 pandemic.
