Shahidan: 'This is Parliament, not a zoo!'


KUALA LUMPUR: The House experienced a brief fiery moment in the morning after several MPs were dissatisfied with Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim's explanation on the ministry's efforts to mitigate flash floods in Kuala Lumpur.

There were several interjections by MPs in the House and Shahidan was eventually triggered when an unknown MP kept on interrupting his reply, which led to the Arau MP (pic) reminding MPs that the Parliament was not a zoo.
