LIM KIT SIANG SUSPENDED
DAP parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang has been suspended from Parliament for six months for insulting speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia. The motion to suspend the Gelang Patah member of Parliament was passed in a bloc vote, with a final result of 107 “yeas” versus 77 “nays”. The motion noted that Lim had accused Pandikar of abusing his power and “sabotaging” the investigations into 1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) last Monday during a debate on the appointment of the new Public Accounts Committee chairman.
