Enggan tarik balik perkataan ‘munafik’, Takiyuddin mahu mediasi
Ahli Parlimen Kota Bharu itu memohon speaker Dewan Rakyat menjadi pengantara antara beliau dan RSN Rayer daripada DAP.
Perikatan Nasional's Chief Secretary, Takiyuddin Hassan, has declined to retract the controversial statement of "munafik" used during the 2027 Budget discussion, which was criticized by Kota Bharu MP Rayer. Takiyuddin has written a letter to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Johari Abdul, hoping for a mediated resolution, according to Sinar Harian.
If Johari refuses mediation, Takiyuddin is open to being referred to the Parliamentary Rights and Freedoms Committee. The incident occurred during the Budget 2027 debate, where Rayer accused Takiyuddin of overusing the term "munafik," allegedly directed at Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim and the budget. Despite Johari's order for Takiyuddin to retract the statement earlier in the week, he has not complied.
Moreover, PN has not decided on whether to contest the Sarawak PRN, as the Sarawak State Legislative Assembly is scheduled to be dissolved on Monday. Takiyuddin mentioned that the decision will be discussed shortly, likely during the upcoming PN Majlis-Tinggi meeting tomorrow. Currently, the focus is on preparing for the PRN in Melaka on November 14th.
