Giving reasons as to why compensation can’t be that high, they urge the Cabinet to take proper legal advice and review the entire project and ask the MACC to get into the action. macc tamanrimbakiara ambigasreenevasan derekfernandez
Ambiga Sreenevasan and Derek Fernandez say they are alarmed over two suggestions arising from Khalid’s Samad’s statement over the disputed project recently.
Their skepticism of the figure comes on the heels of a statement by Segambut MP Hannah Yeoh yesterday that the RM150 million compensation appeared to be “an imaginary” figure and needed to be supported by evidence such as receipts. The proposed project is located in her constituency. “It is our view that the federal territories minister and the Cabinet ought to take proper, independent legal advice on the matter and review the whole process involved in this development.”
They said the relevant Development Order issued by the minister for the project did not accord with the 2013 Draft KL City Plan where Bukit Kiara was zoned as a park with no changes. “The minister must resolve the conflict of interest that arises due to his position as minister, having oversight over planning and development control in DBKL and being the chairperson of Yayasan Wilayah Persekutuan, which is involved with development projects.
