PENANG DCM1 FAIRUS PICKED UP BY MACC

KUALA LUMPUR: Penang Deputy Chief Minister 1 Mohammad Fairus Khairuddin was picked up at the Johor Immigration and Quarantine complex (CIQ) by Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission officers for questioning over alleged illegal quarry activities in Penang.

The MACC probe follows allegations made by national PKR Youth executive council member Amizudin Ahmat during a Seberang Prai Municipal (MPSP) full council meeting on Feb 27 while Fairus was still a councillor there.

BALKIS INQUIRY: DID S’GOR ROS BREAK OWN RULES?

SHAH ALAM: The Selangor Registrar of Societies may have broken its own regulations when it allowed the Wives of Selangor State Assemblymen and MPs Charity and Welfare Organisation (Balkis) to be dissolved.

Registrar officer Tairah Yusoff told the inquiry that 70 out of the 100 Balkis members had attended the meeting and this surpassed the quorum requirement, which was only 64.

However, Selcat chairman and State Legislative Assembly Speaker Tang Chang Khim asked Tairah how 70 people could have attended when most of them had been reduced to being associate members after their husbands had lost in the polls.

Associate members have no voting rights and therefore have no clout to call for or second the dissolution of Balkis, he noted.
