»In fact, most of my supporters in my constituency are women« - TENGKU ADNAN TENGKU MANSOR |
He was speaking to reporters after announcing the sponsors and prizes of the NPC-Celcom Visit Malaysia 2007 treasure hunt here yesterday.
He was asked to comment about the recent controversy which started when Tengku Adnan allegedly referred to bloggers as liars and were mostly jobless women.
Many womens groups criticised him for making the statement.
Tengku Adnan said he loved all women and was here because of a woman.
In fact, most of my supporters in my constituency are women, he said.
The two-day Treasure Hunt, that will be flagged off on March 24, will see more prizes up for grabs this year.
Apart from cash prizes, there are also cruise tickets, room stay vouchers, electrical products, Goodyear tyres as well as Touch n Go cards up for grabs. Participants could also win F1 grandstand tickets to watch the Petronas Malaysian Grand Prix on April 6 to 8 in a lucky draw held at the destination of the hunt.
Details and entry forms for the hunt, which is open to NPC members, other media-related personnel and the public, can be obtained from NPC club manager Stephen Francis (03-2694 0525)
