Shameful behaviour in Perak
[...] Today's circus in the Perak state assembly demonstrate how elected representatives on both sides of the divide are not that different. Remember when BN Members of Parliament (MPs) Datuk Bung Mokhtar Radin and Datuk Mohd Said Yusof likened a leak in the Parliament roof to the menstrual cycle of DAP MP Fong Po Kuan?

PR Teja assemblyperson Chang Lih Kang, however, feels that their representatives were more decorous today compared to 7 May.
