KUALA LUMPUR, July 21 — Proceedings before the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) concerning the procurement of Covid-19 vaccines and their use for Malaysians will resume on July 27, its chairman Wong Kah Woh said today.


The Ipoh Timur MP said proceedings will start with Minister of Science, Technology, and Innovation Khairy Jamaluddin next Tuesday, followed by Finance Minister Datuk Seri Tengku Zafrul Abdul Aziz and Accountant General Datuk Yacob Musfata on July 28.
