Inappropriate to hold Ramadan bazaars now, says Johor sultan

SULTAN of Johor Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar today decreed that it is unsuitable and inappropriate time to organise Ramadan bazaar during the fasting month this year as the country is currently at war with Covid-19.

He said at such bazaars, the risk of having close contact with someone infected with Covid-19 is extremely high, which could have a negative impact on the overall health of the community.
