Bung Mokhtar: ‘Hitler’ tweet not serious


PETALING JAYA: Controversial Kinabatangan MP Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin has defended his “Hitler” tweet, adding that people who have attacked him on social media for it have done so because of who he is.

Bung said that as a fan of the German national team he was very happy with the 7-1 humiliation of Brazil in the semi-finals of the 2014 World Cup and that there wasn’t anything wrong with the reference to Adolf Hitler.
