What’s so hard about defining anti-hopping, DAP leader asks Wan Junaidi

[superadmin]

PETALING JAYA: A DAP leader has rubbished the claim by law minister Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar that a lack of consensus on the definition of “anti-hopping” makes it difficult to draft a law against it.

“His point is invalid,” said DAP central committee member Ronnie Liu.

“There may be different opinions on the definition but there’s always a common basis or something we can learn from the past.”

He said an anti-hopping law would essentially mean that an elected representative wanting to jump ship would have to give up his or her seat.
