The Dewan Rakyat resorted to another heated shouting match before the year’s final session ended on Thursday.

The shouting match started shortly after Ramkarpal Singh (PH-Bukit Gelugor) began his debate over the suspension of the Pasir Salak MP Datuk Seri Tajuddin Abdul Rahman over his sensitive remarks on Hindu religion.


Deputy Speaker Nga Kor Ming eventually put the motion to vote with the House passing it amid continues shouts of objections from Opposition MPs.

The Deputy Speaker then adjourned the session by reciting a poem, and thanked all members of parliament for their participation in the meeting.

The Dewan Rakyat also thanked Secretary Datuk Roosme Hamzah, who will retire next February.
