“Perikatan Nasional going after me with baseless charges is expected. After all, this unelected government needs to reinforce its slim parliamentary majority. But to go for my wife, who, even though a lawyer, does not enjoy a luxurious lifestyle, shows that they know how to hit you where you helplessly hurt most.”

He said she will be charged for her involvement with Excel Property Management and Consultancy Sdn Bhd. The former Penang chief minister was charged with soliciting a bribe from the company that was awarded the contract to build the undersea tunnel.
