Why scare of the reporters, huh?
The press people who wanted to interview the state ministers and chief minister after the state cabinet meeting this morning were shocked to learn that they were barred from entering Wisma Bapa Malaysia.
A notice was pasted at the guardhouse at Wisma Bapa Malaysia, telling reporters and photographers that they were unwelcomed.
According to the guards, they were informed yestterday about the directive to bar the press people.
Normally, the press people would wait at the ground floor of the building for the cabinet meeting to finish.
However, this time they were not allowed to step into the compound of the building.
The guards said they were not told of the reasons for barring the press people.
Some reporters, under pressure from their editors to come back with stories, are still waiting outside the guardhouse as at 3.50pm, inspite of the blazing sun.
