False fire alarm causes temporary suspension of Dewan Rakyat sitting

 


PARLIAMENT | A false fire alarm had resulted in the temporary suspension of this morning's Dewan Rakyat session after all parliamentarians were ordered to evacuate the premises.

The fire alarm rang at 10.18am, and the sitting resumed after around 20 minutes.

Dewan Rakyat Speaker Azhar Azizan Harun who presided over the session attributed the false alarm to a "technical problem".

"Thank you for all of your cooperation. I think there was a slight technical problem.

"Cause of the incident is currently being investigated," he said.

The session continues with Mahdzir Khalid (BN-Padang Terap) resuming his supplementary question on government assistance for Felda.
