There will also be a question from Hulu Langat MP Datuk Hasanuddin Mohd Yunus to Communications and Multimedia Minister about drama scripts that use characters with the title “Tan Sri” and “Datuk Seri” who are engaged in immoral activities, like having illicit affair and are corrupt, as it gives those having the titles a bad image.
