PARLIAMENT | Tourism Malaysia will decide if action will be taken against its chairperson Wee Choo Keong over an alleged outburst against budget carrier AirAsia at the Beijing International Tourism Expo in a meeting on May 30.

Tourism Malaysia has been instructed to investigate the matter before the meeting, Culture and Tourism Minister Nazri Abdul Aziz said.

He said this in a written parliamentary reply to Anthony Loke (DAP-Rasah)

Met at the Parliament lobby, Nazri said he has not spoken to Wee over the matter and would not do so to avoid jeopardising the investigations.

"Let them (Tourism Malaysia) decide," he told reporters.

Wee reportedly lost his temper at the sight of AirAsia buntings at a Tourism Malaysia booth at the fair, and destroyed the buntings.

He, however, denied the claims and said he had merely requested that the buntings be moved to the back as they were overshadowing Tourism Malaysia's buntings.
