Uproar in Parliament after Shahidan says Hulu Langat MP acting 'worse than a monkey'


KUALA LUMPUR: A brief shouting match erupted in Parliament when Arau MP Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim described Hulu Langat MP Mohd Sany Hamzan as acting "worse than a monkey in the jungle".

While debating Budget 2023, Shahidan praised the PAS-held states – Kelantan, Terengganu and Kedah – saying that the states are enjoying harmony, and that this is proof of how the party governs based on principles derived from Islam.
