Raya visiting fears proven right

A new cluster of Covid-19 infections has confirmed what we all feared: that the government allowing Hari Raya visits would lead to more people testing positive for that pesky little virus. Thankfully, we’re still in the double-digit realm, though whether more people have been infected by the Raya visits remains to be seen.

In other news, the mess that is Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia seems to be getting worse; lawyers for a certain former PM’s continue to slam prosecutors at his SRC International corruption trial; the federal government has pulled the plug on funding for a project in Penang, much to the delight of environmentalists; and, the debate over drink driving continues.
