PETALING JAYA: Election Commission (EC) chairman Abdul Ghani Salleh is hoping for Covid-19 restrictions to be eased at the upcoming Johor state elections.
Fears that public gatherings could lead to a spread of Covid-19 saw campaigning severely curtailed during the Melaka and Sarawak polls in November and December, respectively.
When asked in an interview with RTM about campaigning rules at the Johor elections, which must take place on or before March 23, Ghani said the SOPs were still being discussed with the health ministry and the National Security Council (MKN).
