Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin has expressed concern that the upcoming Batu Sapi by-election, and a possible Sarawak state election, could worsen the spread of Covid-19.

However, he said the Federal Constitution and Sarawak state constitution dictates that elections must be held if a seat falls vacant or if the state assembly is dissolved.

"What can be done, that is what the Constitution dictates thus we are forced to have elections.

"Unless an emergency is declared as per Article 150 in Batu Sapi and Sarawak, then we can postpone both elections until the Covid-19 (pandemic) ends.

"If the elections can't be postponed for any reason, my pleae to voters in Batu Sapi and Sarawak is be careful. Take care of yourselves, follow the SOPs with full discipline when elections come," he said in a televised address today.
