Youth-run ‘Parlimen Digital’ latest to debate Covid-19 bill ahead of Dewan Rakyat

Amid criticism against Putrajaya for dithering on the Covid-19 bill, a youth-led initiative will see Covid-19 responses debated online before the Dewan Rakyat convenes to discuss the government’s bill on the virus outbreak.

Spread across two days from July 4-5, the “Parlimen Digital” event will see 222 participants debate and vote on two “bills” concerning how the government should improve its response to the pandemic.
