PETALING JAYA: A deputy minister’s suggestion that Malaysians take on two jobs to cope with rising costs has led to a lot of indignation, with reactions ranging from incredulity to comical.

Fellow Umno MP and Barisan Nasional Backbenchers Club chairman Tan Sri Shahrir Abdul Samad was one of those who pooh-poohed Interna­tional Trade and Industry Ministry deputy minister Datuk Ahmad Maslan’s idea.
