Politicians shouldn t manipulate those who don t have all the facts over retiring ferries, says Jeff Ooi

Nation 01 Jun 2021 GEORGE TOWN: Politicians shouldn t manipulate those who do not have the facts or official records on how the old Penang ferries were retired in 2019, says former Jelutong MP Jeff Ooi. We should stand up for true facts, he said in a text message on Sunday (June 6), adding that criticism should be backed by fact-checking. This comes after a cryptic post by the former DAP MP over the half-sunken ferry in the Prai River, which has raised eyebrows. In his post, Ooi said that old politics has no place in the digital traceability of today. Let the better factual argument win the day, he said, sharing a claim by former finance minister Lim Guan Eng that it is saddening to see the dire condition of one of Penang s iconic ferries.
