Kinabatangan MP is 'sick' of being 'inappropriately manhandled by airport security and urges upgrades to scanners.
FMT
KUALA LUMPUR: Not content with making a spectacle of himself weeks earlier in Parliament when he talked of “sexually stimulating” pat-downs during airport security checks, MP for Kinabatangan, Bung Mokhtar decided to relive his nightmare by bringing up the matter once again albeit in a totally unrelated debate on the Malaysian Airline System Berhad (Administration) Bill 2014.
Jolting everyone with his outburst, Bung remarked, “I don’t like to be touched here and there to have to go through the security.
“It doesn’t happen in other countries, but only in Malaysia. Even Cambodia has scanners, which doesn’t invade someone’s privacy.
Bung also went on to claim that if he was subjected to more gropings, he would not hesitate to sue the security officials.
Obviously feeling an irresistible urge to put Bung in his place, MP for Seputeh, Teresa Kok chastised Bung cautioning him to stick to the debate about the MAS Bill, instead of distracting the Dewan’s attention with his usual antics.
She said, “He went out of topic to touch on body checks, which is under MAHB (Malaysia Airports Holding Berhad).”
Responding later to a joke Bung made, suggesting that he didn’t mind if the MP from Seputeh was being subjected to body checks herself, Kok retorted that his remark was sexist in nature.
She added, “Bung has never changed: Then, now and forever. The Prime Minister should discipline him.
