PETALING JAYA: Malaysia is in need of an ethical leader “for a change”, former federal minister Zaid Ibrahim said.
Alluding to the recent controversy of “blank” Covid-19 vaccine jabs and allegations of MPs being bribed to support the current administration, Zaid said the country does “many things that others don’t”.
“That’s why we need an ethical leader. Not a religious leader,” he said in a tweet.
Contacted by FMT, Zaid said that not all religious leaders were ethical, noting that several leaders from PAS had flouted SOPs.
This included Kedah menteri besar Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor, who was recently fined RM1,500 for viewing and test-driving a pick-up truck in Juru last month, during the movement control order.
