Parliament resumed this morning at ten with a furious Fong Po Kuan (Batu Gajah) rising to table an emergency motion under Standing Order 26(1) (p). She wanted to refer the MP for Jasin and MP for Kinabatangan to the Committee of Privileges to deal with their most vulgar and sexist remarks against her and all womenfolk in the country.

The remark that “MP Batu Gajah leaks every month” was uttered by the two BN MPs yesterday afternoon when DAP MPs drew the House’s attention to the leakages near the media room after a heavy downpour.

There was pandemonium in the House as DAP MPs tried to get the Speaker’s permission to debate the matter, while BN MPs led by the duo tried to stop us from doing so.

There were so much dins that we did not hear the offensive remark.
Later in the evening I found out from the China Press website that reporters at the gallery heard Jasin uttering the remark. I showed the report to Po Kuan, Hock Seng and Chieng Jen, who were seated behind me. I also told Teresa Kok and all of us could not believe the duo could utter such demeaning remark in the august House.

Speaker Tan Sri Ngah Talib was at a lost this morning and said he would only gave a ruling at 2.30 in the afternoon.

Meanwhile Po Kuan went to check out the video recording of yesterday’s proceeding. Bingo, they were caught in action by the video recording.

Kit Siang was very sharp at a Press Conference just now. He said all women are offended and this episode has cast a shadow on Mothers’ Day this Sunday.

He called on all BN women to show solidarity with Po Kuan and throw the offending duo to the Committee of Privileges to redeem honour not only for Po Kuan but for all women in the country.

But would they do so. We will know in the afternoon.
