kt notes:
Bit of a shock for me personally. considering he's 35 years younger than an Old Man.
Not very noticeable as a Pakatan minister apart from his announcement that the PH government planned to abolish the mandatory capital punishment for all situation including in serious crimes. Alas, that promise did not come to be due to gutless leadership in PH govt.
Anyway, may Liew now rests in peace.
Even in death KT must take a swipe at “gutless leadership in Harapan”. No prizes for guessing who KT is swiping.
