‘I apologise to those offended’: Tangga Batu MP on ‘drinking Malay women’ remark

KUALA LUMPUR – The PKR lawmaker, who shot to national infamy after her “drinking Malay women” remark linked to the Timah whiskey in Parliament yesterday, has apologised to those who took offence. 

In a brief statement today, Tangga Batu MP Rusnah Aluai said her speech in the lower house had been misunderstood.

“I take note of the responses towards my speech in Parliament on the issue of Timah. Although my intention was to ensure there is no confusion pertaining to the label (on the liquor), my remark was misunderstood.

“As such, to those who were offended by my speech, I apologise.”
