KOTA KINABALU: Sabah’s ex-chief minister Datuk Seri Mohd Shafie Apdal said the state of Emergency in Malaysia has not been effective in combating Covid-19, calling it to end to allow Parliament sittings to reconvene.
In “The Unity Show Live: A Nation In Despair” interview streamed live in Facebook on Wednesday night (June 9), the Parti Warisan Sabah president stressed that Covid-19 cases including death rates continue to rise despite the move.
“I feel we do not need the state of Emergency; it was proven since the period started that numbers continue to increase. This instrument did not bring the impact we hoped for.
