Absolutely not!
The Doraemon issue has cropped up again after the Health Ministry today tweeted a poster on their official Twitter account, @KKMPutrajaya, suggesting activities for parents and their children to do in order to stay active during the MCO.
In the post, the Health Ministry quipped that parents should also consider using the cartoon character, Doraemon's voice to entertain the young ones.
