Dr Raman Letchumanan: Mr Finance Minister aka top banker, reading the news about how dire our financial situation is like reading my own opinion piece I wrote on Feb 10 entitled Malaysia s economic life: Sick or terminally ill?

KUANTAN: Workers from the hotel sector in Pahang were vaccinated as part of an effort to stimulate the state s economic and support sectors, says the state disaster management committee.
In response to a statement from Science, Technology and Innovation Minister Khairy Jamaluddin, the committee explained that 3,036 individuals, comprising housekeepers, cleaners and maintenance workers from the hotel sector in six districts, were vaccinated and they were not only workers from the Genting Group.
Khairy denied on Wednesday (April 28) that he had ordered that staff members of Genting Group be vaccinated against Covid-19.
He said instead that workers in the Pahang tourism sector were vaccinated by the state Covid-19 Immunisation Task Force (CITF) only after the first dose of immunisation for frontliners listed in the first phase priority group was completed.
