PETALING JAYA: Yeo Bee Yin (pic) says she will take legal action against those who spread slander over the latest pollution incident in Pasir Gudang.
A Facebook post alleged that Yeo's husband, IOI Properties Group Bhd chief executive officer Lee Yeow Seng, owns three chemical factories in Pasir Gudang.
The post also questions why the government is slow in taking action.
The Energy, Science, Technology, Environment and Climate Change Minister said that the allegations were an insult to hundreds of government officers from various agencies who were involved in handling the recent Pasir Gudang health issue.
"I will take legal action against those who spread this defamation and abuse freedom of speech," she said in a statement on her Facebook page Tuesday (July 2).
The authorities are still clueless over the latest chemical pollution in Pasir Gudang as they scrambled to trace and pinpoint the possible source.- Star
