（吉隆坡25日讯）全国91名政府和私人大专院校的学术人员今日联署恳请政府通过政治协商来解决问题，别实施紧急状态。

他们发联署文告说，我国目前并不需要紧急状态：“我们敦促国盟政府和所有国会议员冷静，并作为民选代表负责任地行事。”

他们认为，若政府担心2021年财政预算案无法获得国会通过，就应该冷静而负责任地通过谈判方式，使该财案包容更多意见。

“凭着保护国家和人民利益精神，从政者应展现政治家风范，坐下来谈判，协商出一个有共识及可过关的财政预算案。”

文告提到，我国确实正面临经济危机及与冠病感染有关的公共卫生危机，尤其是在沙巴州，这两者都令人担忧。

“尽管如此，政府仍然有足够的法律和医疗设备，可以压平曲线并控制病毒传播。”

学者们也担心，一旦颁布紧急状态，行政机关可能独揽大权，不受司法与立法机关制衡。此举唯恐破坏良好施政、法治与政府问责：“这最终可能破坏大马的国际地位、财务声誉、投资环境与政府信用。”
