The Speaker speaks up


Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia speaking to The Star during a recent interview at his office in the Parliament building in Kuala Lumpur.

Likening himself to a cook in a hot kitchen, Dewan Rakyat Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia finds himself balancing between a fiery approach and friendly touch to maintain the order and protect the integrity of the august House.
