SINGAPORE: Cuture and Tourism Minister Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz has long been a maverick, a rare politician in a country where most lawmakers echo the party line and defer to their leaders.
He has attracted attention in the past for asking a prince to "keep out of politics", and shocked conservatives by calling religious officials "ignoramuses" for banning the word "hotdog".
