PUTRAJAYA, Nov 13 — All candidates contesting the 16th Melaka State Election have been reminded to cease all campaign activities, including on social media platforms, by 11.59pm tonight, said Communications Minister Datuk Seri Fahmi Fadzil.

He said the Election Commission (EC) reminder must be complied with, meaning no new posts or content that could be construed as campaigning should appear on candidates’ social media accounts from midnight tonight through tomorrow.

“So, no new posts on social media nearing midnight tonight. Put your messages up early; no one should campaign or post anything that could be interpreted as campaigning, including on social media accounts, tomorrow,” he said during his weekly press conference here today.
