MFA, MHA: Ex-Chief Minister of Johor committed no offence
An honorable member of the Coffee Shop Has Just Posted the Following:
MFA, MHA: Ex-Chief Minister of Johor committed no offence May 18th, 2013 | Author: Editorial Dato’ Hajji Abdul Ghani Bin Othman In a joint statement issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Home Affairs, the ministries say that the former Chief Minister of Johor, Dato’ Hajji Abdul Ghani Bin Othman, did not commit any offence during his recent visit to Singapore. Local activist and filmmaker Martyn See had filed a police report against the former Chief Minister of Johor for importing Malaysian politics into Singapore, a violation of the Public Order Act. Mr See, in his police report, alleged that Dato’ Ghani, then the caretaker Chief Minister of Johor, had entered Singapore during the period leading up to the 13th Malaysian General Election to promote his election campaign. Responding to media queries and the police report made by Martyn See, the ministries issued the following joint statement: The Singapore Police Force confirms that a report has been lodged regarding Mr Ghani’s visit to Singapore on 2 May 2013. The Police’s assessment is that no offence is disclosed from this report. The acts referred to in the report such as arriving in Singapore, having breakfast or speaking to reporters do not constitute an offence. In the case of Mr Ghani, it would appear that there was no campaigning, although some members of his team were wearing campaign shirts. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has registered with the Malaysian High Commission in Singapore that campaigning activities by foreigners are not allowed in Singapore. In particular, the wearing of campaign shirts by some of Mr Ghani’s team in Singapore during the Malaysian General Election period could be misconstrued and such cases should not recur. Dato’ Ghani, a Barisan Nasional candidate, was contesting the Gelang Patah seat in Johor which he eventually lost to veteran DAP politician Lim Kit Siang. .
