GEORGE TOWN (Bernama) - About 100 youths staged a protest against Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng shortly after his arrival from Australia at the Penang International Airport here tonight.
Calling themselves “Pemuda Pulau Pinang”, they gathered outside the airport at 8.35pm carrying placards condemning him for the state government’s action of giving compassionate financial aid to Muslim senior citizens from money they alleged was earned from gambling sources, which is not permitted by Islam.
Some of the recipients have since returned the RM100 that was given to them.
Lim, who had made a working visit to Adelaide, was seen walking to his car without acknowledging the protestors. – Bernama
