PETALING JAYA: A PAS MP was today ordered to retract his use of the term “gangster leader” against transport minister Loke Siew Fook.
Pressed by Dewan Rakyat deputy speaker Ramli Nor, Awang Hashim finally relented and withdrew the “unparliamentary” words.Awang had claimed that Loke could become a “gangster leader” with the dissolution of the Malaysia n Aviation Commission .
“We do not want that power to be transferred to the minister, turning him into some sort of tycoon for the cartels.“This means the minister will become a ‘gangster leader’ in this country. He will become a ‘thug head’ or mafia head,” he told the Dewan Rakyat when debating the 2024 Malaysian Aviation Commission Bill.
Earlier, Awang claimed that the move to dissolve Mavcom was to “legitimise” Global Infrastructure Partners’ participation in a consortium to privatise Malaysian Airports Holdings Bhd.
