After the video being circulating heavily among social networks, Zuraida Kamaruddin the Ampang MP from PKR demanded her to apologize to the people and government of Japan on her insensitive attitude when giving her response on the disaster that had hit Japan on March 11.
“This is embarrassing and totally contrary to her confession that as a ‘First Lady’, she greatly assisted in the establishment of diplomatic relations with other countries,” said Zuraida.
“Due to her shallow comment, Malaysia now is being laughed and ridiculed throughout the world. This is more serious because it occurred after the controversial cartoons that insulted the sensitivity of the people of Japan and the world,” she added.
