COMMENT | PM statement a futile exercise to defend PN govt - superadmin - 07-30-2021 COMMENT | The Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) in issuing the statement dated July 29 to rebut the palace’s statement issued earlier in the day, was a futile exercise to defend the Perikatan Nasional (PN) government and was gross misconduct in a most appalling and contemptuous manner. First, the PMO’s statement in seeking to justify the wrongful actions by providing a purported chronology, suggests that the Yang di-Pertuan Agong misrepresented the facts in the palace statement. This is an affront to the royal institution and to the Agong himself. Second, the PMO’s statement itself was misleading because it failed to admit that Takiyuddin Hassan as a minister in the Prime Minister’s Department representing the cabinet and Idrus Harun as attorney-general were instructed by the Agong to table the proclamation of emergency and the ordinances for debate and voting in Parliament. The truth is that the cabinet has willfully and deliberately treated the Agong's instructions with total disdain by failing to act as instructed. This is disobedience at the most serious level. - More -
