Mum, 89, disowns son, 64


KUALA LUMPUR: Left with no choice after constant harassment by loan sharks, an 89-year-old woman announced her decision to disown her 64-year-old son in an emotionally charged press conference, which came after she beat him multiple times with an umbrella.

MCA Public Services and Complaints Department head Datuk Seri Michael Chong told reporters the loan shark matter was first brought to his attention by Kong Sew Koi and her son Chong Khee Voon when they met him on Monday.
