DAP leader slams opposition boycott of Tabung Haji RCI debate
KUALA LUMPUR: DAP central executive committee member Senator Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali has criticised opposition members of parliament, who walked out of the Dewan Rakyat, today.
Senator Sheikh Umar Bagharib Ali, a DAP central executive committee member, has harshly criticized opposition members of parliament for walking out of the Dewan Rakyat during the debate on the Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) report regarding Lembaga Tabung Haji. The deputy chairman of Johor DAP expressed regret over their decision, stating that it was out of line with the spirit of His Majesty, the King of Malaysia.
He emphasized that MPs have an obligation to analyze the RCI findings and address matters concerning Tabung Haji depositors during the debate, rather than abandoning the session. The DAP leader urged the opposition to genuinely seek the truth in the debate, rather than treating the RCI report as a political tool. He reiterated that all MPs, regardless of their political affiliation, must take the responsibility to examine the findings thoroughly and prevent any future failures in governance.
Sheikh Umar stressed that the issue is about trust, governance, the people's money, and the depositors of Tabung Haji, not about political gains or losses. His statement was published in The New Straits Times Press (M) Bhd.
