No need conditions for Pua-Arul 1MDB debate: Shafie



Umno vice-president Shafie Apdal opposes conditions set by Dewan Rakyat Pandikar Amin Mulia on the live debate on 1MDB between Public Accounts Committee member Tony Pua and the company's president Arul Kanda Kandasamy.
Imposing conditions on the live debate, or to ban it, was not wise nor appropriate, Shafie said today.
This is because, he said, it was important the people to find out the truth about 1MDB through the debate.
"I welcome the debate to be held. The debate will allow members of the public to know information (relating to 1MDB)," Shafie said when met at the Parliament lobby.
"It is not appropriate to impose conditions. No conditions should be set by any quarter if we want to get the truth," said Shafie (BN-Semporna).
"It is not wise for us to impose a ban (either).
"Although he (Pua) has exclusive information (relating to 1MDB) in his capacity as PAC member, we shouldn't put conditions on him," he said.
Pandikar has ordered Pua to either resign from the PAC or abstain from the committee's investigation into 1MDB if he wants to debate Arul Kanda on the beleaguered state-owned firm.
Pua issued a challenge for a debate on 1MDB to be telecast live, which Arul Kanda has accepted.
