KUALA LUMPUR, July 19 — The Sabah assembly’s decision to approve salary increases of up to 40 per cent for officials and lawmakers was inappropriate when Malaysians were struggling with a cost of living crisis, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
“I ask that this decision not be continued, after taking into account the hardships and difficulties of Malaysians,” he said in a statement. They will see the chief minister’s salary increase from RM23,595 to RM33,033; the deputy chief ministers’ salary increase from RM20,872.50 to RM29,221.50; and the ministers and Speaker’s salaries increase from RM16,335 to RM22,869.
