Seeing red over menses remark


PETALING JAYA: Women leaders from both sides of the political divide were united in rebuking an Umno lawyer’s remarks that Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail should not be made Mentri Besar because she is a woman.

MCA vice-president Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun said although the Mentri Besar would need to accompany the Sultan to religious ceremonies, that was not the main responsibility.
