KUCHING: There is no need to set up a Royal Commission of Inquiry (RCI) to investigate the floods and water surge phenomenon that hit several villages in Baling, Kedah on Monday, says Minister in the Prime Minister's Department (Parliament and Law) Datuk Seri Dr Wan Junaidi Tuanku Jaafar.
An RCI does not have specific powers but only able to submit proposals for government consideration, he said.
"Finally, the report will return to the Cabinet ministers for them to choose which proposals they want to implement," he told reporters after the symbolic presentation of cows for the Aidiladha sacrificial slaughter for the Santubong parliamentary constituency here on Saturday .
