• 27 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman for giving me this chance again. I want to support the Chair in the deletion of this new Clause 60A. Parliament has been given powers and so it has the capacity. It is well-resourced with both a research department and a legal department.

• 12 Mar 2019 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this chance to contribute to this very important matter to me and many other people. From the outset, I oppose the Report of the Departmental Committee. I have done my own research and found that this project was started in 2015. The Committee has not told us whether this Report was presented to this House and whether the House approved the building of that wall.
