KUCHING: Sarawak State Cabinet members plan to appeal to the Yang di-Pertuan Agong to lift the emergency order in Sarawak if the State can bring the Covid-19 situation in the State to a manageable level.
Sarawak Deputy Chief Minister Tan Sri Dr James Jemut Masing said this in a WhatsApp message after several Cabinet members had an ‘informal discussion’ about the matter.
He said if the appeal is favourably considered, it would pave the way for the 12th State Election to be held as the term for the current State Legislative Assembly ends in June.
