Parliament is back in session, with this sitting set to last all the way until 27th of March 2024. The MPs discussed a bunch of topics, including cost of living issues and how the National Action Council on Cost of Living will help with that, online scams as well as the ruling by the Federal Court that nullified 16 provisions under the Kelantan Syariah Criminal Code Enactment. Toward the end, exciting things happen: A walkout staged by the opposition bloc, as well as Pendang MP being suspended from the Dewan Rakyat, by the speaker.
