PETALING JAYA: Malaysian United Democratic Alliance (Muda) information chief Luqman Long has apologised after the party’s Kedah chapter attacked other Opposition parties and government coalitions in an anti-graft message posted on Facebook late Wednesday (Feb 9) night.
Luqman said the post had caused misunderstanding among the public and did not adhere to any of Muda’s principles.
“Following a discussion with the Kedah Muda information chief, it was found that no permission was given for the posting and it was deliberately made with bad intentions.
“Therefore, I take full responsibility for this incident,” he said in a statement on Thursday (Feb 10).
Luqman said he would suspend the Kedah information chief from any activities related to the party.
“This is in no way (meant) to deny that mistakes on my part may have tarnished the good relations between Muda and other Opposition parties.
“I apologise for this untoward incident and stand ready to take responsibility as Muda’s information chief (and face) any disciplinary action from Muda,” he added.
