LOGIC-DEFYING UMNO GROUP: 'Opposition paying Bar Council to hold rallies - Malay NGO
KUALA LUMPUR - Jaringan Melayu Malaysia (JMM) criticised the Malaysian Bar Council, alleging that it is a “sponsored company” paid to hold demonstrations against the government.
JMM president Azwanddin Hamzah claimed the Bar Council was being used by the opposition to hold rallies on repealing the Sedition Act 1948, as demonstrated in their “Walk for Peace and Freedom 2014” protest at parliament last Thursday.
“The Malaysian Bar Council, led by its president Christopher Leong, is a ‘company’ sponsored to hold demonstrations against the government.
“Opposition members of parliament, such as Gobind Singh Deo, Darell Leiking, N. Surendran, Wong Chen and Ong Kian Ming, all took part in the rally,” he said.
Azwanddin claimed that the Bar Council was a “poison” to the country’s political stability.
He called upon Leong to explain how the Bar Council obtained funds to organise the rally.
“Leong must reveal who sponsored the rally. All the airfare, transport, hotel accommodation, food and drinks, as well as banners, required money.
“Money was also used to fly in international lawyers, including foreign representatives of other international association of lawyers from the Commonwealth Lawyers Association, Law Council of Australia, LawAsia and the Japanese Bar.
“Why is the Malaysian Bar Council so eager to bring in foreigners to intervene?”
Azwanddin urged Leong to also reveal who had sponsored previous rallies organised by the Coalition for Clean and Fair Elections and Suara Rakyat Malaysia.
Azwanddin claimed that despite there being other debatable issues pertaining to the law, the Bar Council did not hold demonstrations or rallies on those issues as there are no parties to sponsor them to do so. -NST
