What is wrong with the Selangor State Government?
TMI reports that the Selangor state government has allocated RM1 million for constituency projects to each of the PR assemblyman ahead of a possible general election this year.
Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said Barisan Nasional (BN) representatives were excluded from the allocations because the BN federal government similarly discriminated against PR MPs.
I find this disturbing. What right does the MB have to deny tax paying rakyat developmental allocation just because most of them voted for BN in the last election? What about those who voted PR in the BN ruled constituencies? Why isn’t their loyalty rewarded or at least recognised? What does Khalid Ibrahim and his team hope to achieve with this childish move? The fact remains that the money came from taxes and it is gross injustice to deny any of us development. If they are serious about promoting equitable practices, the Selangor PR government must give all ADUNs the allocation. If not, Khlid Ibrahim and his team are nothing but another BN.
An eye for an eye does not work in this case; PR should learn how to kill with kindness because two wrongs will never make a right.
