KUALA LUMPUR: No gag order but check facts before you speak, says Perikatan Nasional chairman Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

He was asked by the media on the recent faux pas by Perak PAS chief Razman Zakaria who linked Sports and Youth Minister Hannah Yeoh as the daughter of a Chinese tycoon linked to the YTL Group. “I am not taking sides. Furthermore, in this Chinese New Year season, we have to emphasise on national unity and better understanding among different races in Malaysia.

“Everything said must be based on facts. You cannot claim to be innocent - and whatever statements are made, that person must be responsible and merely offer an apology the next day.
