#KiniNews: 'DG afraid to die' remark heats up Dewan Rakyat
Bintulu MP Tiong King Sing's remark that Health director-general Dr Noor Hisham Abdullah "is afraid to die" for not coming down personally to Sabah to monitor the Covid-19 situation prompted an outcry in the Dewan Rakyat today.
Tiong made the remark during his debate on the Supply Bill 2021, prompting RSN Rayer (Harapan-Jelutong) to demand an apology for the alleged insult.
"I won't allow him to attack the DG. The DG is a frontliner!" said Rayer, who was eventually ejected from the Dewan Rakyat by Deputy Speaker Azalina Othman Said.
Azalina proceeded to give Tiong two options of whether to retract his remarks or to clarify it.
