SHAH ALAM – Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali (Bukit Antarabangsa-Perikatan Nasional) is one of the state lawmakers who have yet to attend a session in the current Selangor assembly sitting that started on November 23.

In addressing the low attendance today, state speaker Ng Suee Lim singled out former Selangor menteri besar Azmin and Harumaini Omar (Batang Kali-Pejuang) have been missing in action since the sitting started.

“Only 70% out of the 56 representatives attended the current sitting, making it one of the lowest turnouts ever recorded at the state legislative assembly,” Ng told reporters at the sidelines here today.

Selangor lawmakers’ poor attendance also compelled Ng to address the issue of whether state executive councillors (exco)  should answer written questions submitted by absent assemblymen during the sitting.
