Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng is shocked at MCA president Dr Chua Soi Lek's view that there is no need for a royal commission to probe Teoh Beng Hock's cause of death.
At a special press conference held at Komtar today together with Teoh's sister Lee Lan, who was in Penang on a drive to collect signatures to press for the setting up of the commission, Lim said he also regretted that Chua may have uttered the words because MCA felt the issue surrounding Teoh's death was unimportant.
At a special press conference held at Komtar today together with Teoh's sister Lee Lan, who was in Penang on a drive to collect signatures to press for the setting up of the commission, Lim said he also regretted that Chua may have uttered the words because MCA felt the issue surrounding Teoh's death was unimportant.Lim urged the rakyat to show BN and its component party, MCA that his death is indeed important enough for the RCI to investigate the cause, saying, "We must show them the rakyat wants the RCI to probe Teoh's death... I am shocked to hear that Chua merely wants to listen to Umno, and not the people."
After the event, Lim and several others, including Bukit Bendera MP Liew Chin Tong signed the petition to support Teoh's family in their quest to seek justice.
Lim urged Prime Minister Najib Razak to heed the people's voice wanting justice for Teoh, and other mysterious deaths like those of A Kugan and Aminulrasyid Amzah, saying, "If we speak directly... no one should mati katak (have a meaningless death)... so it is time to follow the rule of law and establish the RCI to probe the cause of these deaths."
