KUALA LUMPUR: Deputy Agriculture and Food Security Minister Datuk Chan Foong Hin today clarified that the Facebook account under the name 'Chan Foong Hin' does not belong to him.
He said it was a fake account created by irresponsible individuals and called the public to help report the account on the platform.
"Please note that I have only one FB page (with a verified blue tick) and one FB personal account 'Foong Hin Chan'," said Chan.
"There's no such position called 'Deputy Prime Minister of Plantation & Commodities' too," he added.
Meanwhile, checks by New Straits Times on the fake account showed that the alias used is @chan.foong.hin.2, and the profile has zero friends.
