PAS lawmaker Muhammad Fawwaz Mohamad Jan courted flak from a DAP assemblyperson in Penang for “assuming the role of moral police” regarding the promotion of alcoholic beverages at a mall in the state.
“I am of the opinion that it is not the role of an MP or elected representative to be moral police and take action on activities which he or she believes to be inappropriate.
“It is clear the promotion was in conjunction with the upcoming Chinese New Year celebration. It is aimed at non-Muslims and carried out in accordance with the law,” said Daniel Gooi in a statement this afternoon.
The Pengkalan Kota representative was responding to a video of the Permatang Pauh MP holding discussions with the mall’s management regarding the promotion.
