Many MPs missing in action


KUALA LUMPUR: They worked long and hard during an often intense 14th General Election campaign to win seats in the Dewan Rakyat, yet some MPs are apparently finding it a challenge to attend the daily meetings in the august House. And it is only the second day of the second week of the new Parliament.

A day after the Prime Minister expressed dissatisfaction over the attendance of ministers and their deputies in Parliament, the Dewan Rakyat was forced to halt proceedings temporarily yesterday due to a lack of quorum.
