BATU PAHAT: The Dewan Rakyat sitting scheduled on May 18 will see several Covid-19 prevention measures put in place including social distancing in terms of the members of parliament (MPs) sitting arrangement.

Its deputy speaker Datuk Mohd Rashid Hasnon said, unlike previous sessions, during this upcoming sitting all MPs would be seated one chair apart.




“Number of officers allowed to accompany MPs will also be limited, while the sitting session itself will be short.

“We have informed all 222 MPs that the upcoming sitting will be conducted as short a time as possible,” he told reporters after receiving personal protection equipment sets from Batu Pahat district education office for the Sultanah Nora Ismail Hospital here today.
