Not true PM slow to act in S'gor floods, Shahril tells state rep

Umno Youth information chief Shahril Hamdan has defended Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob against the threat of a lawsuit for allegedly acting in bad faith when Selangor was hit by floods.

Responding to Hulu Kelang assemblyperson Saari Sungib, Shahril said it was not true that Ismail had been slow to act in managing floods in Selangor last weekend.

"His (Saari's) statement appears to be an attempt to let go of his own responsibilities and point fingers at others," said Shahril in a Facebook post.
