Zahid: Rohingya in Penang to be housed in Government facilities


KUALA LUMPUR: Federal Government facilities and premises will be used to house Rohingya refugees in Penang, said Home Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi (pic).

"It would be better if leaders who have been champions of human rights to translate what they have been calling for on the political stage and in the Dewan Rakyat into action instead of passing the burden to other parties," he added.
