‘Outsider’ Azalina has no business discussing anti-hopping law for Melaka, say lawyer

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: Pengerang MP Azalina Othman Said “crossed the line” by initiating an anti-hopping law for Melaka as it is purely the business of the incoming government and its 28 elected assemblymen, a lawyer said.

Muhammmad Rafique Rashid Ali said being trained in law and being a former Dewan Rakyat deputy speaker, she should know the process for amending the constitution and passing laws.

“As federal MP, she has crossed the line by meddling in the affairs of the state government and its legislature, more so when a state election will be held soon,” he said.
