Jamal Yunos organising Nothing to Hide 0.3 but will not invite Dr M


KUALA LUMPUR: In the wake of the ruckus caused during the Nothing to Hide 2.0 forum on Sunday, Red Shirts leader Datuk Seri Jamal Yunos (pic) now says he wants to hold a Nothing to Hide 0.3 forum.

He said he was naming it "Nothing to Hide 0.3" so that it would not be linked to the Parti Bersatu Pribumi Malaysia-organised forum.

Jamal said they would invite DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang, Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng and Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Azmin Ali to the forum.

However, he said Pribumi chairman Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad would not be invited to the event.

"We're afraid that Dr Mahathir's presence could cause another ruckus," Jamal told a press conference, referring to Sunday's event that was halted abruptly after a ruckus erupted.

He added that an invitation would also be extended to Armada, the Pribumi youth wing.

Jamal said the forum would feature "pressing" questions such as Kit Siang's birth place and the scandals involving the Penang and Selangor governments.

He said he planned to hold the forum in Jalan Chow Kit, subject to approval from Kuala Lumpur City Council (DBKL), with Jalan Bukit Bintang the second option.

Umno Youth exco member Armand Azha Abu Hanifah, who was present at the press conference, denied the party had sabotaged the Nothing to Hide 2.0 forum.

Sunday's forum descended into chaos when slippers, a shoe, bottles and chairs were thrown and two flares were lighted inside Dewan Raja Muda Musa hall.

Shah Alam OCPD Asst Comm Shafien Mamat confirmed that three teenagers have been arrested over the incident.
