BANGI MP Ong Kian Ming happened to be at Sungai Merab last Wednesday, when Umno Wanita chief Noraini Ahmad was on a visit there and his presence was not under the instruction of the Umno leadership.

Noraini in a statement today said, she met Ong while she was visiting the Vaccine Centre (PPV) at Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM).

“I was at the UKM PPV to meet MyVac volunteers who could not return to their hometowns to celebrate Aidilfitri,” she said.

Noraini added that Ong had wanted to follow her delegation to visit a UKM doctorate student in Sungai Merab in Bangi as the student is suffering from cancer and the area is under his parliamentary constituency.

As such, Noraini denied allegations that Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi had instructed that DAP representatives be invited to every programme organised by the party.

Noraini along with Higher Education Ministry director-general Prof Dr Husaini Omar had last Wednesday visited PhD student Azura Omar to give her support as she goes through cancer. – Bernama, May 15, 2021.
