By Syed Jaymal Zahiid

KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 14 — The Dewan Rakyat Deputy Speaker rejected the urgent motion to debate the worrying plunge of Petronas’ profit moved by parliamentary opposition leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim today.

Datuk Wan Junaidi Jaafar told the House that although the issue is of public importance, he found it was not urgent to be debated.

Opposition lawmakers led by Anwar objected, saying that it was important for the House to debate an issue which would have adverse impact on the country's economy
