Jangan jadi Adun, Ahli Parlimen serentak, kata Speaker DUN Sarawak
Susulan pertikaman lidah mengenai Ketua Pembangkang Chong Chieng Jen, Asfia Awang Nassar tegaskan bahawa ahli politik tidak patut pegang kedua-dua jawatan jika tiada masa.
Speaker DUN Sarawak Asfia Awang Nassar recently expressed her thoughts on the controversy surrounding Deputy Speaker Violet Yong and Chong Chieng Jen, who both hold positions in the DUN. The issue arose after Chong's attempt to participate in a session while also being present in the Dewan Rakyat for parliamentary duties. Asfia maintained that Asfia understood Chong's situation but still allowed the motion against him to proceed.
She emphasized that Yong and Chong had met prior to the event to request an exemption, which was subsequently approved.
Asfia countered Yong's criticism by stating that the motion should have been made in writing through the clerk's office. She also highlighted that Chong's actions on social media were inappropriate and demanded more restraint from the Speaker. Asfia advised the Speaker to be more impartial and fair in handling such disputes, especially between the opposition and the government. She expressed her understanding of the Speaker's intention to maintain fairness and impartiality.
