IPOH - Another case of “inappropriate dressing” has occurred at a government building in Perak, this time with a woman being barred from entering the Companies Commission of Malaysia (SSM) office.
The woman, whose dress length was slightly above her knees, was denied entry into the building on Friday by a staff member who informed her that her attire failed to comply with the agency’s dress code.
In a video posted on Facebook, the woman could be heard asking the male staff member which part of her attire was not presentable. The man then continued to say that he could not let her go to the offices on the upper floors as her dressing did not follow the guidelines. He also said he was aware that he was being filmed, but had no issue with it.
When contacted later, the woman identified herself as Khor Hooi Chin, 41, from Pantai Remis, a coastal town in Manjung district about 1½ hours’ drive from Perak’s capital Ipoh.
Ms Khor said she was at the SSM building at 11am, but was stopped from entering by a guard.
The seafood supplier said she asked to speak to a staff member, who then came to tell her that she was not dressed according to the rules.
“I had to leave the premises and go to a mall to buy a longer skirt to wear with my original dress. After doing all that, I had to wait until 2.45pm for the office to reopen,” she said.
Ms Khor maintained that there was nothing sexy about her outfit, which was office wear.
“This is not the first time something like this has happened. We hear of it all the time, but nothing is ever done.
“In my case, I travelled from far away and wasted the entire day before being able to get my work done,” said a frustrated Ms Khor.
Attempts to reach State Entrepreneur Development Committee member Salbiah Mohamed for comment were unsuccessful. SSM falls under her portfolio.
