Patriot slams curb on alcohol sales, says corruption more damaging - superadmin - 11-22-2020
PETALING JAYA: An NGO representing retired armed forces officers has described the move to curb the sale of alcoholic drinks as ridiculous, questioning authorities if consuming it was more dangerous than corruption.
“We would like to ask the pious Ahmad Marzuk Shaary to tell us if drinking alcohol or corruption is the bigger evil,” National Patriots Association (Patriot) president Mohamed Arshad Raji said, referring to the deputy minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Religious Affairs).
“Which is more damaging to our society and nation? Which evil attracts Malays most?”
Arshad asked Ahmad Marzuk and Federal Territories Minister Annuar Musa to look at the large number of immigration officers arrested last week for alleged human trafficking and the many politicians currently facing corruption charges.
