Rahim Noor's appointment reflects Govt's weakness in forging institutional reforms, says DAP's Boo


PETALING JAYA: A DAP veteran has claimed that the appointment of former Inspector-General of Police Tan Sri Abdul Rahim Noor as the new facilitator for the southern Thailand peace talks shows a “weak determination” by the government in forging institutional reforms.

“The appointment would inevitably reflect a failure of the government to set a standard of integrity for public officers and representatives,” said former Johor DAP chief Dr Boo Cheng Hau in a statement Wednesday.
