PETALING JAYA: The storm over the home-grown Timah whiskey has ended on a peaceful note with the manufacturer allowed to keep the name, thus ending attempts by those who wanted to stir up the issue, says Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

He said he was glad that there had been a good outcome and that a name change was not necessary. The Cabinet, he said, had discussed the latest development on the issue during its recent meeting.“Timah does not need to be renamed and the manufacturer has agreed to provide more explanation on the origin of Timah in an additional label that Timah’s original meaning refers to bijih timah, which is related to tin ore and mining,” he said in a Facebook post yesterday.

Yesterday, Domestic Trade and Consumer Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Alexander Nanta Linggi said the Cabinet had agreed to allow Timah whiskey to maintain its name. Dr Wee thanked Nanta for his cooperation, as it had thwarted the intention of Parti Amanah Negara of Pakatan Harapan to play the religious and racial card.

COMMENT | Timah shows that we don’t tolerate ridiculousness anymoreGood for Malaysians for showing these politicians up. Semut nak fokus brminggu2 br bulan2 ..gajah2 yng rosakn ladang dibiarkan. Wats happening to our country's halatuju . fatbidin article may have little bit of a positive spin on the outlook of our maturity in this country, but let's not forget who are the ones making the most noise. PAS, Bersatu and PKR. Liberal supporters of PKR won't make noise while the other two just lack 'Jentera'. Why should Malaysians? It's got nothing to do with these JAKIM-Pas-Umno-Bersatu-PH crooks.

Never mind the name, is Timah even a whiskey in the first place?'If ‘Malaysian whiskey’ is going to be a thing moving forward, maybe it’s time we had some clearly defined rules for what whisky actually is in Malaysia.' Everything capable of moving forward will not be Malaysian, thats lesson no.1
