Exposed! ‘BN Sapu Tanah Negeri. Tiada yang Tertinggal. Tiada yang Terpinggir (BN sweeping clean state lands. None Left Out. None Sidelined) II’ 

Why  Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir approved almost whole of Lumut Town to be developed by Kinta Berkat Sdn Bhd without open tender? What are the terms for the approval? Dato’ Seri Najib Bin Tun Razak must insist that Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir be transparent.

On 5^th October 2012, I have exposed that Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir had approved a 6 acres piece of prime land in the Sitiawan Town Centre to Kinta Berkat Sdn Bhd without open tender with very favourable terms. I have asked numerous questions which Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir has refused to answer until today.

I have asked why no open tender was called. I have also asked why premium was reduced from RM4,729,587-00 to only RM52,000-00. Will public funds be use to construct the 44 units of government quarters and the local government depot that were demolished to give way for the project? My 5^th October 2012 media statement is attached herewith.

In conjunction with the Prime Minister, Dato’ Seri Najib Bin Tun Razak's visit to Manjung District today, I would like to expose that Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir has approved 147.84 acres of land, almost the whole of the Lumut town land belonging to the State to be developed by Kinta Berkat Sdn Bhd, the same company that was approved to develop the above said 6 acres land in the Sitiawan Town Centre.

The people have the right to know why such a huge development was approved to Kinta Berkat Sdn Bhd without a open tender. What are the terms for the above said development?

The people demand that Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir be transparent with regard to the above said projects. If Dato’ Seri Zambry wants to hold public office, he has a duty to answer the people, failing which he must resign.

The Prime Minister who was instrumental in installing Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir as the Menteri Besar of Perak must insists that Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir discloses fully the terms of the above said projects otherwise, his purported transformation programs are mere rhetorics!

Dated this 18^th day of October 2012.

Mah Hang Soon shamelessly continue to claim credit for what Pakatan Rakyat did when in fact he or MCA has no say in the BN State Government of Perak

MEDIA STATEMENT

I feel ashamed for Dato’ Mah Hang Soon, the MCA Exco member in the BN State Government when he continues to claim credit for the 2,500 acres of land approved to the nine independent Chinese Schools in Perak.

MCA has been in Government for more than 50 years but was not able to approve any land to support the 9 independent Chinese Schools. The 2,500 acres of land were approved when Pakatan Rakyat became the Government in Perak in 2008.

Even the RM2.0 Million premium imposed was reduced to RM10,000 only after Pakatan Rakyat pressured BN to follow Pakatan Rakyat’s policy of imposing nominal premium for non-profit organizations.

In order to show that Dato’ Mah Hang Soon or MCA has no say in the BN Government of Perak, even the 99 years lease with 80% premium rebate for Kg Tersusun and Chinese New Villages (which is worse than the terms for freehold title granted under Pakatan Rakyat Government) announced by him was not adopted by the BN Government due to objection from UMNO.

Dato’ Mah Hang Soon lied when he said the leasehold titles approval to Chinese New Villages is 99 years. It is only for 60 years. He lied when he said premium rebate given was 80% for 99 years lease when in fact it is only 50%. Many New Villagers were cheated when they paid premium for 99 years lease but were issued only with 60 years titles.

I called on Dato’ Mah Hang Soon to come clean on this matter.

I am lodging a police report against BN Perak Menteri Besar Dato’ Seri Zambry Bin Abdul Kadir and Dato’ Mah Hang Soon for cheating the people.

If Dato’ Seri Zambry bin Abdul Kadir and Dato’ Mah Hang Soon want to claim credit for themselves, they must do what Pakatan Rakyat has not done.

I call on Dato’ Seri Zambry and Dato’ Mah Hang Soon to approve a yearly grant of RM2.5 Million to the 9 independent schools for the next 5 years as the amount received from the joint venture for the 2,500 acres of land is only RM1.1 Million per year for the next 5 years and not the expected RM3.6 Million annual income as the development of the proposed plantation has just commenced.

As a show of my support for these independent schools, I will donate another RM10,000 to Nan Hwa Private School in Manjung. I had donated RM40,000-00 to Nan Hwa Private School last year.

I call on both of them to also act immediately on the lands approved for Religious (Sekolah Agama) and Tamil Schools so that these schools will also be having immediate income to ease their financial burdens.
