THE Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections (Bersih 2.0) refers to a proposal submitted to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong by Pejuang protem chairperson Tun Mahathir Mohamad that a National Operations Council (Mageran) be set up to fight the Covid-19 pandemic.
We would like to state that the proposed Mageran 2.0 will cripple the role of Parliament as a platform for policymaking. With the proclamation of the Emergency earlier in 2021, the role of this third branch of government was already crippled when Parliament and the Parliamentary Select Committees were not allowed to sit during this period.
