Yesterday was a whirlwind in Malaysian politics as Dato Seri Najib Tun Razak became the first Prime Minister to be found guilty of corruption. While most Malaysians were glad that justice was served, a worrying thought crept in Malaysians at the sight of thousands of Najib’s supporters who showed up at the KL Court with no regards of social distancing.

They explained in the post that we should set aside our political differences and remember that we’re all Malaysians, especially during this trying times.
“We saw the pictures and there were so many older citizens just like our parents. To those who had family members who attended the gathering, take note of their health. If they’re exhibiting any symptoms, immediately get a health screening from the nearest clinic.”
If you attended the gathering/know anyone who attended the gathering:
1. Get tested if you’re exhibiting any symptoms
2. Maintain social distancing
3. Wear your face masks in public places
4. Don’t increase any risks for the people around you
Remember Malaysians, the war against Covid-19 is not over yet. It will only be over if we all work together towards it. This is not the time to be selfish anymore!
