According to Ismail Sabri, these prospects are not "just an empty dream" as the government has previously managed to bring the number of cases down.
"Based on data from last Friday, 20 August, the daily cases in Wilayah Persekutuan Labuan have dropped drastically to a single digit for seven days in a row after achieving 90 per cent of adult herd immunity," he was quoted as saying.
To achieve that, Ismal Sabri has urged all Malaysians who have yet to register to receive the COVID-19 vaccine to do so.
"By doing so, we are assisting and appreciating the sacrifices of our frontliners who are still struggling to ensure that we can live our lives in the new norm," he added.
Let's hope this dream becomes a reality soon.
