PKR president Anwar Ibrahim said that he had urged Prime Minister Muhyiddin Yassin to call an emergency Dewan Rakyat sitting this week to develop a bipartisan response to the Covid-19 outbreak.

He revealed that he brought up the topic during his meeting with Muhyiddin.

He said the Covid-19 outbreak should not be used as an excuse as there are other ways to get around it such as through video conferencing.
