SINGAPORE: Malaysia's linchpin opposition parties are at loggerheads again in Penang, this time over graft investigations into DAP state executive councillor Phee Boon Poh.

PKR's Penanti assemblyman Dr Norlela Ariffin has been accused of initiating the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission's (MACC) raid on an illegal carbon-filter factory last week which led to Phee's arrest last Friday.
