He also tells the state assemblymen, incuding Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng, to wear skirts for future sittings.
GEORGE TOWN: A controversial local NGO leader today slammed Pakatan Rakyat state representatives as “pondans” (transvestites) and told them to wear skirts when attending assembly sittings in future.
Pertubuhan Suara Anak-Anak Malaysia (Voice of Malaysian Children’s Association) chief Mohamed Ghani Abd Jiman said this when he was barred from entering the Penang Legislative State Assembly to submit a memorandum to Speaker Abdul Halim Hussain.
Security officers rejected his request to enter the building and told him that his memorandum would be received by a representative outside the House.
An upset Ghani then launched a verbal tirade against the Pakatan representatives in front of the media and police.
“Pakatan representatives are all cowards and pondans.They don’t dare allow me to enter the assembly building to hand over a memorandum.
“They should not wear pants when they come to assembly sittings in future. They should wear skirts,” he told reporters.
Ghani said that he would personally buy the skirts for Pakatan representatives, including Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng.
After submitting the memorandum, the NGO leader and three others were taken in a police truck to have their statements recorded at the city police headquarters.
The commotion created massive traffic jams in the vicinity.
Past issues
Ghani had been involved in a series of public spats with Pakatan representatives, including Lim and his political secretary and Komtar representative Ng Wei Aik, for the past three years.
He once challenged Lim to a fight to settle their differences. In March, he paraded and placed two coffins on the waysides of Komtar and Paya Terubong, for Ng.
The case was investigated under Section 506 of the Penal Code for criminal intimidation and for illegal assembly under Section 27(5) of the Police Act 1963. But Ghani had yet to be charged with any offence.
His memorandum today highlighted several past issues, including Ng’s alleged racist “Balik India” (go back India) remark, for the state government’s urgent attention.
Today was the first sitting of the 12th Penang State Legislative Assembly’s fourth session.
One notable absentee was state opposition leader Azhar Ibrahim, who was scheduled to return to the assembly sitting since his six-month suspension ended last week.
Azhar had been receiving intensive treatment for heart failure at the Island Hospital here since last week.
The Penaga assemblyman was suspended from the sitting for six months after the assembly’s Rights and Privileges Committee found him guilty of violating the standing order by uttering seditious words during a heated argument with the chief minister last May.
