MP tells FT minister to save ‘trafficked baby’ by returning Taman Rimba Kiara to ‘the people’
news report citing Khalid as asking “If I can save the baby, why kill the baby?”
“The right thing to do is to return the baby to the rightful owner — the people. That is how you save the baby. You kill the green lung by developing it,” she said. The Shah Alam MP from Amanah denied he was an “apologist” for developers by allowing construction to proceed on the green lung, but said he was instead trying to save the government from unnecessary use of public funds.
The minister said his team is preparing a presentation in Cabinet, which will be sent first to the attorney general for vetting as Yeoh and C4 suggested.
