Wee: Timah can keep its name


PETALING JAYA: The storm over the home-grown Timah whiskey has ended on a peaceful note with the manufacturer allowed to keep the name, thus ending attempts by those who wanted to stir up the issue, says Transport Minister Datuk Seri Dr Wee Ka Siong.

He said he was glad that there had been a good outcome and that a name change was not necessary. The Cabinet, he said, had discussed the latest development on the issue during its recent meeting.
