KJ says premature to call for fresh TH RCI, pans PN MPs for walkout

Former Umno Youth chief Khairy Jamaluddin has suggested that it was premature to call for a fresh royal commission of inquiry (RCI) into the restructuring of Tabung Haji (TH), instead of debating the existing report on Tuesday. During an episode of the Keluar Sekejap podcast, Khairy criticized politicians from Perikatan Nasional (PN) who walked out of the Dewan Rakyat instead of discussing the report due to the absence of Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, who was undergoing medical surgery.

Khairy argued that it would have been more mature for PN MPs to stay and debate the TH RCI report, emphasizing that this would demonstrate their commitment and seriousness towards the issue.
