IPOH, Feb 20 (Bernama) -- Menteri Besar Datuk Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir said he and the six State Exco members do not want to be hasty like the opposition which suspended them from attending the State Assembly.
"We don't want to be like them. We will use the law to resolve the present situation," he told reporters after Friday prayers at Sultan Yusuf Mosque at Rapat Setia here today.
Zambry was commenting on the decision by Speaker V.Sivakumar to suspend them and the statement by Bar Council president Datuk Ambiga Sreenevasan that the suspension could not be challenged in court.
"It is just one of several other views. I don't want to dwell on this as I want to conduct my duty as the menteri besar who was consented and appointed by the Sultan of Perak, Sultan Azlan Shah," he said.
He regretted that some people had insulted Perak Mufti Datuk Seri Harussani Zakaria in blogs and talks after the latter did not share their opinion on the political event in the state recently.
Zambry said Harussani's views should should be respected and held in high esteem by all as he is a man of noble character.
"Barisan Nasional (BN) was also not spared but did not mean that he (Harussani) did not like us. He was only pointing out things based on the law.
"As such, we did not retaliate when criticised and did not show any disrespect to him," he added.
