Power and Money drive BN Crazy, I guess
April 14, 2008
Salam,
I think this is my first explicit title ever. I have not a single idea on how their latest action can be justified. There are two main announcements which is quite disappointing. Besides that alone, the way they announce it and they justify it with no guilt annoys me more. I don’t mind if they have concrete reasons for their actions but the problem is they don’t and they announce their “justification” so proudly whereas it proves nothing but their discriminatory stance against the states under the new administration.
One
All Memorandum of Understanding with the states with the new admin are cancelled. That’s ridiculous. Continuing on, the government will create a new tourism council in these states where money will be given to them directly to do tourism projects instead of the state government. My hypothesis, they planned projects and already agreed on how they will suck out their portion of money. However, the new government will surely not give them the money. So, they need a new way to still get the money.
Their justification?
The only difference is the one who sign the cheques. What’s the big deal – Azalina Othman Said
It just shows how you want to have the power on the money instead of giving it to the administration which has been selected to handle it, which has been trusted more by the people.
She also said that this is not an issue, it has been done before in Kelantan.
Another stupid statement. SO, you have been discriminating against them a long time ago?
Two
Kementerian Perumahan dan Tempatan or something like that announced that they are also creating a new council. Before, they give the money to the state. The state give the money to JKKK to do the projects. Now, ths state is gone. So, they are taking all their JKKK people to resign. Put them into this new local council controlled directly by the federal government. And now, the money don’t go to the state. The money goes directly to these council.
My hypothesis: Then, the money can still be given to these JKKK people which are obviously their die-hard supporters.
In addition:
They also say that they will use the method that they have done in Terengganu to handle these new governments. You know what is one of the big thing that they did in Terengganu during PAS reign?
Basically, Terengganu has next to NIL income without its Petroleum production. The petroleum production earns the state nearly a billion a year from royalty. And during PAS reign, the royalty stops! The money goes to the government and is given back to Terengganu as Wang Ehsan to the Terengganu’s BN. So, what is left to the state government?
I don’t know about others, but i am feeling that they are so worried for losing these sources of money. They lost the states. Now, they are stealing the rights of the state governments as they still hold the federal government. They need to realize, the people there have selected their new government. NOT for the federeal government to take their power and source of income but to let them do the works and show that they are capable of leading the state.
It’s hard to have justice in this world. Salam Alaikum
