Tangga Batu MP apologises for 'drinking Malay women' statement

PETALING JAYA: Tangga Batu MP Rusnah Aluai has said that her statement that drinking a local whiskey named Timah is akin to"drinking Malay women" has been misinterpreted.

"I apologise to those who have been offended by what I said," she added in a Facebook post on Saturday . The suggestion made when interjecting debates on the Trade Descriptions Act 2021 in the Dewan Rakyat on Thursday raised eyebrows in the House after Rusnah said drinking the whiskey was akin to"drinking Malay women"."It also does not represent a good picture of women as it gives the impression that Timah is a Malay woman such as Kakak Timah, Mak Timah and Mak Cik Timah and whatever. It is as though we are drinking Malay women," she had added.

It is time for the Rakyat to eliminate politicians that do not think clearly, shoot with their mouth and apologise when there are backlashes.

MPs of Malaysia. This is what taxpayers are paying them for

Podah la... any politician who shoots 1st, loud & wt conviction, then hesitantly & quietly apologise, when rcve intense flaks fm d public.

Why always like this? Talk without thinking...then say sorry. There are silly statements and there are pure nincompoop statements. We are, unfortunately, spewing more of the latter. And the Rakyat goes...
