Today, members of the Dewan Rakyat observed a moment of silence after a 16-year-old girl was killed by a 14-year-old boy at a school in Bandar Utama, Petaling Jaya. PKR’s Bayan Baru MP, Sim Tze Tzin, shared news of the girl’s mother asking Malaysians to pray for her child. He then called on all MPs to take a short moment to meditate for the schoolgirl.
