What a shock!
There wasn't anybody from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to answer the first question from YB Tuan Tiong Thai King [BN-Lanang]!
Well, today is Wednesday, the Cabinet Meeting day, and you are guaranteed that there will be no Minister attending Parliament meeting today. But even though there is no Minister, the Deputy Minister and the Parliamentary Secretary of that ministry will should be attending to answer question from MPs.
Today, it seems that Ministry of Foreign Affairs has broken the record. YB Tiong Thai King asked the Minister of Foreign Affairs to state the progress on the dispute of the maritime border off the Sulawesi Sea with Indonesia, of whether;-
(a) whether oil exploration is still in progress; and
(b) whether Malaysia will share the oil concession with Indonesia.
So, his question remained unanswered on the spot. YB Tiong could probably get his written reply from the Ministry later but it is disappointing to witness such incident.
I wonder that if we are going to talk about Parliamentary Democracy, how far can we go further?
