Zaid takes aim at Nazri's 'no pay needed' remarks on envoy post

PETALING JAYA: It appears that only the wealthy can serve Malaysia, says Datuk Zaid Ibrahim in an apparent dig at Datuk Seri Mohamed Nazri Abdul Aziz’s statement that he was willing to serve as ambassador to the United States without a salary.

“Now Ambassador to US don't want (sic) salary. Is it real? Looks like only the wealthy can serve this country,” the former law minister said in a tweet on Tuesday (Feb 14).
