WITH the exception of a shouting match over the issue of replacing the Speaker of the Dewan Rakyat, which resulted in the suspension of the MP for Jelutong for two days, the first meeting of the fourth session of the 14th Parliament on Sept 13 was notable for the absence of the usual shouting matches among MPs.
Although it’s still early days, this bodes well for the august institution, especially when cooler heads prevailed and the MP’s suspension was reduced to one day.
