Motion to debate MAS’ losses rejected

KUALA LUMPUR: The Dewan Rakyat has rejected an emergency motion to debate the losses amounting to RM1.2bil incurred last year by Malaysia Airlines.

Speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia said the motion, which was tabled by Lip Lim Eng (DAP-Segambut), did not fulfil the requirements for an emergency motion as detailed in the Standing Orders 18(1).
