Deputy minister agrees ‘Timah’ whisky issue overblown following public furore

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 28 — Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Deputy Minister Datuk Rosol Wahid today agreed that the controversy over the whisky Timah had gone out of control.

He also explained that the brand had already undergone all due diligence before having its name approved, including the two-month objection period to allow members of the public to assert their rejection.“Meaning, from a legal perspective, the name is already legit. It’s just when some havoc or public discomfort happens; and yes, at times there are just many things,” Rosol said.

“I hope that whatever stand the government takes, matters like this need to be explained so that other cases do not arise owing to misunderstanding,” he added. He added that the community should be educated to not be emotional and play with sentiments to create discord between the Malays and the non-Malays, “until causing the nation to become a laughing stock, laughing stock by the world”.
