Derogatory words at state assembly are so uncalled for

THE ruckus at the Melaka state assembly proceeding is the perfect example of George Bernard Shaw’s quote, “I learned long ago, never to wrestle with a pig. You get dirty, and besides, the pig likes it”.

On Monday, Pengkalan Batu assemblyman Norhizam Hassan Baktee (pic) claimed he called opposition assemblymen “babi” because they had called him “barua” (lackey), “babi” and “pengkhianat” (traitor).
