Dewan Rakyat Speaker Pandikar Amin Mulia has urged journalists, especially those from online news portals, to provide fairer coverage of the proceedings.

He also joked about how those who disparage the House could land behind bars.

Malaysiakini was among the news agencies he was displeased with, citing its coverage on the rejection of 30 questions related to 1MDB.

The speaker was particularly disgruntled with an open letter published in one news portal about the executive undermining Parliament by vetting questions.
