Bung Mokhtar’s jail time<\/a> for polygamy serves as a good lesson to all elected representatives and politicians that they must uphold the sanctity of marriage, respect the law and respect their wives of their first marriage.<\/p>\n

In the past, DAP women MPs have repeatedly argued with Kinabatangan MP Bung Mokhtar and Sri Gading MP Mohamad Aziz<\/a> on their sexist and degrading remarks, and on the issue of poligamy and “one husband one wife” but these two MPs have always taken our advice as a joke.<\/p>\n

Bung Mokhtar is not laughing anymore as he finally faces the consequences of his disloyalty to his first wife. The egg on Bung’s face is a serious blow to his image. As an MP as he should be a lawmaker, not a lawbreaker!<\/p>\n

I guess he may be dropped as an MP during the next round of general elections due to his misconduct.<\/p>\n

Wan Mahyuddin said that court needed to impose severe punishment so that that the public would respect the institution of marriage, and to serve as a lesson for those that did not respect the Islamic legal system. (continued..)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
