Guan Eng, Saifuddin on what went wrong in handling of pandemic - superadmin - 09-02-2021 GEORGE TOWN: The secretaries-general of DAP and PKR gave a damning audit of Putrajaya’s handling of the pandemic in the Penang state assembly today. While pointing out the failures, they also suggested how the federal government could handle the crisis. DAP’s Lim Guan Eng (PH-Air Putih) and PKR’s Saifuddin Nasution Ismail (PH-Pantai Jerejak) touched on various issues, from the rising number of deaths in the state, the vaccination exercise and support services for those under lockdowns. Penang has the highest Covid-19 case numbers in the country by population – at 94.5 incidences per 100,000 people (for a seven-day average), outnumbering the Klang Valley. Lim, in continuing the debate on the governor’s address today, said there must be an in-depth study on why certain areas had a high number of deaths. - More -
