Founder and chairman of Yayasan Budi, Rais Yatim says the advice given to the Malay Rulers by four academicians on the Rome Statute was baseless.

Rais said they must be held responsible and accountable for the given advice.

He was speaking at a public forum on The Rome Statute Pull-Out: Controversies and the Implications —Where Do We Go From Here? held at the Kuala Lumpur- Selangor Chinese Assembly Hall on Saturday.
