Lim said he also managed to take down notes while “resting” his eyes and uploaded an image of this

Bashah, who had yet to be sworn in as menteri besar then, denied that he was sleeping, and instead claimed that he had closed his eyes to better appreciate the state monarch's speech
However, DAP veteran Lim Kit Siang watched the 36-second clip twice and concludedthat Bashah was asleep

"Saw Bashah video again. He was sleeping deeply. Bashah should not take oath as Kedah menteri besar until he comes clean on it," he had said. - Mkini
