My deepest condolences to the family and the DAP colleagues of the late Kerk Kim Hock. He was an MP for two terms – Pasir Pinji (now Ipoh Timur, 1990-1995), Kota Melaka (1999-2004).
In Parliament, the Speaker Pandikar Amin read out condolences on behalf of all MPs. He however did not allow a minute of silence despite requests from several DAP MPs.
