N.Surendran suspended from Dewan Rakyat for another six months

Padang Serai MP N. Surendran has once again been suspended for disputing the Dewan Rakyat’s for another six months effective immediately.

The action was taken for disputing the Dewan Rakyat’s meeting order for the day as there was hardly any space allocated for Opposition motions, debates or Bills.

Surendran was suspended once the motion was read by Minister in the Prime Minister’s office Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim before the Deputy Speaker, Datuk Ronald Kiandee.

The motion was related to Surendran's press conference last Monday claiming speaker Tan Sri Pandikar Amin Mulia had suppressed the opposition's voice in Parliament when the latter rejected his motion on June 16.

The motion to suspend him was passed without debate, with only a voice vote taken, sparking resistance from opposition MPs.
