What can emergency do that MCO cannot?
#1
Kim Quek: The prime minister said that “the government needed certain powers to effectively combat the worsening Covid-19 pandemic”.

But there is nothing the current laws cannot do to combat the pandemic that the emergency can.

Unless Muhyiddin Yassin can specify these “certain powers” under the emergency that it will otherwise be denied, we will take it that his sudden impulse to declare the emergency was to pre-empt the spate of withdrawal of support to him from MPs coming his way.

In other words, he is only trying to save his own skin at the expense of the people as the state of emergency will certainly have a negative impact on the economy, causing even greater misery to the rakyat.
