The appearance of Datuk Seri Abdul Hadi Awang's private member's bill on hudud in the Parliament's order paper came as a shock to DAP today, who said it was the first time they were seeing it in Parliament.
DAP parliamentary leader Lim Kit Siang said the bill showed Hadi had broken his promise to the Pakatan Rakyat (PR) leadership council, and was the reason why the opposition pact was now in a crisis.
"This is the first time we are seeing it. Hadi promised on February 8 that any motion on the private member's bill would first be presented to the PR leadership council.
We are very shocked. His promise is broken as a result of what we see today," Lim told a press conference at the Parliamentary lobby today.
He also urged Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak to announce Barisan Nasional's (BN) stand on hudud, now that the bill may be debated in Parliament.
"Where is the prime minister's statement as promised by MCA leaders? Up to now the prime minister has been under labour pains. Now he is having stillbirth," said Lim.
