elizabeth wong

SHAH ALAM: More pictures of Bukit Lan­jan assemblyman and state exco member Elizabeth Wong have surfaced, barely a week after she had resumed both her positions after a short hiatus.

Wong had gone on a two-month leave in February after revealing pictures of her found their way to the media early that month.

The latest pictures, made available on the Internet, showed Wong sound asleep.

Asked for her comments yesterday, Wong, who appeared calm and composed, said she had done what was necessary by lodging a police report two months ago when the pictures first surfaced.

She declined to comment further when met at an investiture ceremony held at the Dewan Jubli Perak here.

Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said he would ask the police to do the necessary.

“For those who have the pictures, it is their social responsibility to give it to the police because it is considered an offence.

“They can give it to me and I’ll pass it to the police,” he said after presenting RM2mil to Chinese schools in Selangor.

Khalid reiterated that the circulation of the pictures was an intrusion of Wong’s privacy.

Exco member Iskandar Abdul Samad said the culprits should stop their dastardly act as it would not scare Wong off.

“She is a strong person and she can see herself through this. She has been carrying out her duties since her return and faced everyone,” said the PAS man.

Wong resigned as an exco member and assemblyman after pictures of her first surfaced.

However, the state turned down her resignations and directed her to report to work last week.
