KOTA KINABALU: Datuk Seri Bung Moktar Radin (pic) says he is willing to cooperate with any investigation over the "turtle eggs" controversy to clear his name. "I am also not a fan of turtle eggs due to its cholesterol content which is not good for my health. "Those were not turtle eggs as claimed by some irresponsible quarters, but hard-boiled chicken eggs which had been shelled. Possession and consumption of turtle eggs are prohibited under the Sabah Wildlife Enactment 1997. State Tourism, Culture and Environment Minister Datuk Jafry Ariffin had said that the state Wildlife Department had been asked to look into the matter.
