GEORGE TOWN: The action of PAS MP Muhammad Fawwaz Muhammad Jan, who demanded that a beer promotion event at a mall here be covered up, has raised many eyebrows.

The Permatang Pauh MP had reportedly marched into the mall on Monday and demanded that beer sales not be done openly.

The beer promotion is held in conjunction with the Chinese New Year, with similar sales being held in other cities nationwide. Gooi said it was not the role of an MP or elected representative to take action on activities they believe is inappropriate."It is aimed at non-Muslims and carried out in accordance with the law," Gooi said in a statement on Tuesday , adding that Muhammad Fawwaz had deviated from his duties as an MP.
