- 3 years ago
Deputy Health Minister I Noor Azmi Ghazali’s office has denied that the deputy minister had breached the movement control order (MCO) by receiving visitors at the office.
In a statement, the office said the meeting took place on Jan 12, a day before the MCO came into effect.
“Therefore, the office of the Deputy Health Minister I asks the news portals involved to immediately retract the accusations and inaccurate information they had published.
“Such false allegations could create a bad public perception towards the Deputy Minister I and the Health Ministry,” the office said in a statement today.
The officer was referring to a report by Malaysiakini and one other news portal.
