JOHOR BARU: Another candidate for the Johor election has tested positive for Covid-19.
Marina Ibrahim, the DAP candidate for Skudai, said on Twitter post that she tested positive two days ago and is now under home quarantine.
“I tested positive two days ago after taking a RTK test. Since then, I have been in home quarantine while waiting for my PCR test result.
“However, this challenge has not dampened my spirit to continue campaigning. I will explore other platforms, including social media, to communicate with Skudai voters,” she tweeted on Wednesday (March 9).
She added that her team would continue conducting physical campaign activities.
“I hope that everyone will continue to support me and my campaign team until polling day,” she said.
