Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng has finally broken his silence on recent
allegations that his wife Betty Chew assaulted his former staff member.
While denying that he had an affair with his former staff
and that his wife assaulted anyone, Lim
said the allegation was a result of BN and MCA's character
assassination.
In reference to Chua’s admission of an extramarital affair in December 2008, Lim said, "Let my wife and me prove in court that MCA lied, that Lim Guan Eng is not (MCA president, left) Dr Chua Soi Lek."Referring to Duyong state assemblyperson Gan Tian Loo’s allegation at the Malacca state legislative assembly on Monday, Lim said it was an abuse of assembly immunity and he challenged Gan, who is Malacca MCA chief, to repeat the allegations outside the state legislative assembly so that he and his wife can take legal action against him for defamation.
Reading from a prepared statement at a press conference in Penang
today, Lim said, "Gan
has abused the Malacca assembly privilege and immunity by making false
allegations of a private moral scandal against me and my wife.”
