LANGKAWI: Langkawi MP Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad opined that it is still not suitable to hold the 15th general election (GE15) soon even though the total daily Covid-19 infections is seen as getting more under control now.

According to the former Prime Minister, precautionary measures should continue to be taken to prevent the outbreak from spreading leading to more infections in the country.

“We should be on the alert and remember the Sabah State election. At that time, the total cases (Covid-19 in the country) were low but when the Sabah election was held, the disease spread rapidly. “Covid-19 cases (now) appear to be dropping but we need to be alert like wearing face mask and not to gather in large number to trigger another spike,” he said.
