Malaysian couples who have challenged the traditional gender-biased breadwinner models find equality, and happiness, in their relationships.

JOHOR BARU: There will not be a casino opening its doors in Johor as claimed in a recent news report, says Datuk Onn Hafiz Ghazi.

“As such, the rumour that has been spread is seen as an act of sabotage with an ill intention to taint the name of Forest City and Johor,” he said in a statement here on Friday .Onn Hafiz added that three casinos that previously operated in Johor had been shut down since the time of Almarhum Sultan Sir Ibrahim Ibni Almarhum Sultan Abu Bakar.

He added that the state government is confident that the developments of the Special Financial Zone and Johor-Singapore Special Economic Zone will breathe new life into Forest City and boost the economy.Meanwhile, Pasir Gudang MP Hassan Karim commended Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim for his prompt response in dismissing the Blomberg news report.

He said it was also impractical to investigate the news company and writer involved under the Sedition Act or the Communication and Multimedia Act.
