Lim Lip Eng (PH-Kepong) contended that Marzuk’s statement was not only false, but seditious in nature.
“I want the government to call upon the police to investigate, and if they can, arrest that MP,” Lim said when debating the Supply (Budget) Bill 2025 in the Dewan Rakyat today.
In a Facebook post on Sunday, Marzuk claimed that non-Malays and non-Muslims were increasingly controlling major sectors in Malaysia, warning that the country could face a situation similar to that of Palestine.
The PAS MP claimed that while Jewish immigrants were initially welcomed to Palestine on humanitarian grounds, they gradually took control of the economy, land, and politics, eventually displacing the native population.
Lim also hit out at PAS MPs for suggesting that Malaysia Airlines should stop serving alcohol on its flights.
He said non-Muslims have the right to consume alcohol, and that many airlines operated by Gulf nations also serve alcohol on their flights.
“To PAS, if you don’t like this (practice), I suggest that you create your own airline called PAS Airlines,” he said.
Earlier this month, Hulu Selangor MP Hasnizan Harun called on the transport ministry to stop serving alcoholic beverages on Malaysia Airlines flights, saying the practice goes against Islamic principles and puts Muslim flight attendants in an uncomfortable position.
He claimed that passengers were also uncomfortable with alcohol being served on such flights.
It was not the first time that PAS had made such a call. Then PAS Youth deputy chief Ahmad Fadhli Shaari made the suggestion in 2017 after a disruptive drunk passenger caused a MAS plane to turn back to Melbourne.
