SIBU: DAP Sibu Women’s chief Alice Lau is demanding an apology from Daniel Ngieng Kiong Ann for making a statement in the press which she said had marred her integrity as a pharmacist.
She told a press conference yesterday that she was giving Ngieng, who is Sibu Municipal Council deputy chairman, a week’s time.
“If he doesn’t apologise within a week, I may take legal action,” she said, adding she would seek advice from state DAP chairman Wong Ho Leng and state DAP secretary Chong Chieng Jen who are both lawyers.
Dudong assemblyman Yap Hoi Liong who was with Lau at the press conference concurred that Ngieng’s comment on Lau was damaging to her reputation and professional integrity as a pharmacist.
He said it was wrong for Ngieng to insinuate that Lau did not hold a proper licence to run her pharmacy.
