Norlela lashes out at Guan Eng and Co for being 'bullies'

 


Penang executive council member in charge of health Dr Norlela Arifin today accused several DAP lawmakers, including their leader Lim Guan Eng, of being bullies.

This was Norlela's response after PKR's members of the Penang State Legislative Assembly issued a statement supporting her part in the state's Covid-19 response.

Norlela (above) told reporters in her text messaging group today that she truly appreciated the solidarity shown by her PKR colleagues.

She explained that Lim, Penang exco member Phee Boon Poh and Pulau Tikus assemblyperson Lee Chun Kit, among others, had made public statements disparaging her and crediting the drop in Covid-19 cases in Penang to DAP lawmakers.

"They have been saying that all the Covid-19 case reductions are because of Phee's appointment (as Penang Emergency Response Team head) and Steven Sim (as Penang-Putrajaya Covid-19 coordinator).

"(They claim) that I, as the exco in charge of health, need to learn from (Phee and Sim)," Norlela said.

"Tell me exactly what have they done to bring the cases down since their appointments? What miracles have they performed? Show evidence. I want to see."

Very frustrated

On Sept 8, Lim described Norlela as "naive" for "blindly following the wishes" of the federal government on the state's Covid-19 response.

On Sept 12, Lim described Norlela as a "helpless bystander" because Penangites with Covid-19 have trouble seeking medical attention.

On Oct 3, Lim praised Sim for bringing down the number of Covid-19 cases in Penang.

New daily Covid-19 cases peaked in Penang on Sept 8 and have gradually been reducing since.

Norlela told reporters said she was very frustrated with the behaviour of the DAP lawmakers.

"These bullies who like to witch-hunt women are sickening," she said.

There is a history of conflict between DAP lawmakers and Norlela. In 2017, Norlela claimed she was being accused by DAP supporters for (being responsible) for Phee's arrest by the MACC.

In 2015, Norlela cried during the Penang state assembly sitting, after accusing the state government of ignoring her questions on her Penanti constituency. - Mkini
